    There are two speakers in the center channel area in the center of the dash, three speakers in all four doors, two speakers in the rear parcel shelf, and a subwoofer in the rear parcel shelf, for a total of 17. I have now owned two Genesis G90s and the Lexicon stereo in my opinion is phenomenal. It is so enveloping, three dimensional, crisp, and clear. The clarity and fidelity is like no other vehicle stereo I’ve ever heard. I like highs (high treble) and the little tweeters in the doors are so clear and crisp that it sometimes hurts my ears! Exceptional stereo. I’ve listened to plenty of other high-end audio systems in competing vehicles. This one is my favorite. It’s also nice that the 17 speaker Lexicon stereo comes standard in all G90s; you don’t have to pay extra. There is no “base” stereo available.

    I have a 2012 Genesis with the 17 Speaker Lexicon. This stereo sound legitimately great. This is the first stock car stereo that I didnt feel the need to upgrade anything, speakers or amps (Of course it would sound better if you did, but you would be spending a ton of money with the install and this car simply doesnt need a stereo upgrade). If you have a good sounding smartphone with a 3.5 inch jack ( I got the Samsung S10 Plus) or a DAP music player , try connecting it to the Lexicons Aux in. It sounds great. Trust me.

    Hello there is something you probably didn’t know about all Hyundai products, and it’s that the last speaker you’re looking for is used for the sounds it needs to make. E.G. welcome/goodbye sound, blinkers, etc. I don’t know if if only uses 16 speakers for the stereo or if uses all 17.

    Can the system plan 6 channel FLAC files with proper channel separation? I have a 2015 Genesis Ultimate and I'm looking to upgrade to the G90 soon when the warranty expires. On the Genesis, the latest update gave it the ability to play FLAC but 6 channel FLAC files are played back as stereo and same with OGG. 6 Channel WAV and DTS encoded WAV files don't play back at all.
    Reason why I ask is because, I ripped a number of DVD-A discs to FLAC files and the only way to get them to play back in 5.1 is to author my own DVD mixes encoded in DTS. I can also just put the original DVD-A disc in as well but then I'd just be changing discs all the time. 1 DVD can fit about 70 songs in DTS 5.1. With more and more cars ditching the DVD drive, 5.1 playback through USB is a must for me. If they advertise the Lexicon as a 7.1 system like my 2015 Genesis, what source material do I need to get 7.1 discrete sound? DVD-A just sounds too incredible for me to give it up.

    • @barbecuetechtips6024

      The only car I know of that plays discrete audio in 5.1 is the new TLX with ELS 3D audio. It plays 24bit/ 48KHZ/ 5.1ch files via USB. It has no bit rate maximum and plays 1 hour concert conversions from Blurays.
      Seems that the 2017+ G90 can play DVD-A, DVD's, and Blurays. I read that an update removed the support for DVD-A later on for the infotainment.

    The G90 is running on run flats. That explains the high road noise on un-broken pavement. A proper tire would alieviate the impact and tire contact patch drone.

  • @Wasabi9111
    @Wasabi9111 4 роки тому +2

    Great review. How does the interior noise level impact the overall score? You referenced the Volvo. But I find the loud interior noise level (road noise and engine noise) of the Volvo reduces the overall sound quality of the sound system, especially since I like to listen to the music at a lower volume.

    • @DailyMotor
      @DailyMotor  4 роки тому +5

      Thanks! The G90 is a notch quieter inside, so you will probably enjoy softer music better in the Genesis than the Volvo. The Volvo's system really excels at providing a powerful listening experience even at loud volumes with complex songs. The best system we've tested for easy listening is the Mark Levinson in the GX 460, partially because that cabin is so quiet.

    I am pretty sure that speaker in the rear seat is for noise cancelling. The active noise cancelation is on at all times in a modern car if equipped. I do not know how to disable it on a Genesis model, besides unpluging the module.
    Quick tip: On Lexus models, such as the 2019+ ES 350. You can over ride the noise cancelation system by toggling the sun shade and moving it half an inch to disable ANC(Active noise cancellation).
    What this achieves is even better sound quality by not having canceling sound frequencies played at the same time as your music.

    1. The CD/DVD is located in the glove compartment
    2. Only FRONT USB is for data. Back USB is power only
    3. Unfortunately, it is little murky how many files/directories the system can handle. It looks as much less that previous model.
