Radio/dvd Failure in 98 - 07 Lexus LX470 Posted June 16, 2008 2001 Lexus LX-470 One speaker in back, forget which side, starting making scratching/popping noises. Using Fade/side controls at radio, ignored the problem hoping I could sometime open the panel and check the speaker. Then, radio/dvd all went out with no sound whatsoever Then, very, very loud static/popping/cracking sound from speaker system mostly at startup for about 3 minutes but then randomly later when driven. Took to dealer, said amplifier was probably the issue. $1350.00 for new amp and then they could further analyze. Getting varying/suspect quotes from aftermarket installers that require new amp, new wiring, and even new radio/dvd. Any and all ideas appreciated.. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THE LEVINSON AMP REPAIRED?? OR WHERE I CAN BUY ONE THAT IS NOT FROM THE DEALER? THANKS
