B&W kits out luxury Jaguar

[Κώστας Φ.]

Bowers & Wilkins has joined forces with Jaguar to give the new XF an in-car sound system it hopes will provide "the best ever audio experience in a car".

Having worked on the car's sound system from the early concept stage, B&W hopes to have created an in-car system that's 'designed in' rather than tacked on as an afterthought.

Testing over a period of three years claims to have found the ideal locations for the 14 specially-designed speakers.

The system itself uses Dolby Pro Logic II 7.1 to deliver the full surround sound experience with all your tunes.


With four metal dome tweeters, a rear-mounted subwoofer and nine of B&W's trademark Kevlar speakers throughout the Jaguar XF, it certainly sounds thoroughly kitted-out.

The Jaguar XF will be available for delivery through all UK dealers from March 2008, with the Premium Sound System as an optional extra.

The two companies also worked together on the sound system for the C-XF concept car and the XKR.

Bowers & Wilkins has teamed up with Jaguar on yet another project, the XF sedan. Jaguar and B&W were designing the sound system for the new XF before the car was even even on the drawing board. They set a goal early on for the XF, "to deliver the best ever audio experience in an automobile."

With a total of fourteen speakers (four tweeters, nine woofer/midbass drivers and a single subwoofer), the XF utilizes Pro Logic II 7.1-channel surround sound as well as active DSP (digital signal processing) techniques. The DSP is used to adjust the sound system for the automotive enviroment because of the constantly changing speed and road conditions that can affect the in-car sound.

- Four metal dome tweeters
- Nine Kevlar woofers/midbass drivers
- Rear-mounted high-power subwoofer
- Active DSP (digital signal processing)
- 440 watts of power
- 7.1 Dolby Pro Logic II

The Jaguar XF is expected to make its public debut at dealerships in the Spring/Summer of 2008.
