Clearly Acura has decided that the new RLX will have an exceptional audio system

We kind of already discuss this in depth in another thread. Having had a 35K Krell system in my home, I'm excited as well. If I like the RLX in person, it will be my next car just to have the Krell audio system!

I'm looking for a new car for 2014. If this actually lives up to something worthwhile, I might just wind up being an RLX owner too.

Which one ? The FWD one or the top-line SH-SH-AWD one ?

I am not sure about people but if I decide to go the RLX route, I will not get anything but the SH^2-AWD. I will let try and hold off to see the TLX styling first and base my decision on what it looks like. Right now, I feel the TLX will be a better looker with better wheels (steel rims would look better than those of the RLX now) and more accessories (bodykit). If the Krell system lives up to its name, it will be a tough decision.

Unless I swap the TL and the RDX for the TLX and RLX?! *humm*

I just hope the Krell system will be offered in the TLX. To OP, I KNOW Krell is not going to puts its name on anything that is not the Krell sound. In the field they play in, representation is everything, when you charge what they do.

Acura already said they had no plans to put it in any other models. Even on the RLX, it'll be part of a higher-end option package, so not all RLX's will have it. The other RLX's will still use the ELS system, which, I guess'll still be Panasonic equipment.

I don't think buyers are gonna all rushing out to buy the RLX just because of the Krell system.

Sound system is deal breaker for me. I'm not going to buy a car and cringe everytime I turn the audio on.
