Jaguar cabins are designed around refinement, and an available Jaguar Meridian™ Sound System brings that same attention to detail to the listening experience. Engineered specifically for Jaguar vehicles, Meridian™ audio technology combines carefully integrated speakers with advanced digital processing to create detailed, immersive sound. Jaguar Northfield explains the engineering behind it.
A Partnership Built into the Design Process
Founded in 1977, Meridian™ has a long history of innovation in digital and active audio technology. Its collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover began in 2011, and Meridian engineers work alongside vehicle designers from the early stages of development through final audio tuning. That collaboration allows factors such as speaker positioning, mounting, cabin materials, and system tuning to be considered as part of the vehicle’s overall design rather than simply adding an audio system afterward.
What Makes Meridian™ Sound Unique?
Meridian™ sound system specifications vary by Jaguar model, but each system uses digital audio technologies designed to optimize sound for the vehicle cabin. Digital Signal Processing (DSP) helps distribute music to each speaker, while Meridian™ RE-Q tailors playback to the acoustics of the interior. Digital Precision helps preserve fine audio details and reduce distortion.
Available Meridian™ Surround systems add Trifield technology, which creates immersive multichannel audio from two-channel stereo content. On compatible systems, Trifield 3D adds dedicated height channels for an even more spacious, three-dimensional listening experience.
Which Meridian™ Sound Systems Are Available?
Meridian™ offers multiple levels of audio technology for Jaguar vehicles, with availability varying by model and configuration. Meridian™ Sound focuses on high-fidelity clarity and depth, while Meridian™ Surround adds Trifield technology for a wider, more enveloping soundstage. Meridian™ 3D Surround builds on that experience with Trifield 3D and dedicated height channels for three-dimensional audio.
