Bowers & Wilkins Award-Winning Audio
Extends to Jaguar 2010 XKR and XFR
At the Detroit Auto Show in January, Jaguar unveiled the 2010
XKR and XFR automobiles and announced that the exclusive award-winning
Bowers & Wilkins premium audio system would be available as standard
equipment. The ongoing partnership of the two British icons yields a
benchmark audio system that has set the standard for both sonic
excellence and operational elegance—a perfect reflection of the Jaguar
tradition.
The Bowers & Wilkins automotive development team continues to
build its program upon the same rigorous component specification and
selection that the company has utilized for its long lineage of
unexcelled home audio and home theater audio systems. Turning this
expertise to the unique challenges of in-car system engineering and
tuning ensures a consistent, and compelling musically engrossing
entertainment experience for the driver and passengers alike.
The Jaguar audio systems features core Bowers & Wilkins elements,
in particular its hallmark KevlarŪ midrange loudspeaker units, and
famed low-distortion, high-performance aluminum tweeters. The Kevlar
speaker diaphragms for the Jaguar systems were specially refined to
preserve the trademark Bowers & Wilkins musical purity and detail,
bringing listeners as close to the music as they might be a live
performance—even in the challenging mobile environment. Unlike more
conventional speaker designs, dispersion of accurate musical balance
is much more uniform, bringing convincing sound to all the
passengers. Aluminum tweeter domes were chosen because of their
natural, distortion-free performance even under enormous dynamic
demands giving the listener a more detailed and revealing listening
experience regardless of moving speed and overall volume setting.
The XFR and XKR are two cars that are true to Jaguar’s legendary
heritage performance, delivering a superb balance of automotive high
performance, dynamic response and refinement. Both vehicles feature
the all-new AJ-V8 Gen III direct-injection engines which promises to
deliver more power and more performance with no loss in fuel
efficiencies and a decrease in emissions.
Bowers & Wilkins experience and know-how has been applied all
models of both vehicle ranges to ensure premium sound quality;
standard in the XFR, XK Portfolio and XKR and available in the XF, XF
Portfolio and XK.
