The Jaguar F-Type was the production vehicle that was shown as the concept C-X16 at the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. The C-X16 design concept followed Jaguar’s 2010 C-X75 plug-in hybrid concept supercar. The Jaguar F-Type Convertible was launched in October 2012 and the Coupé followed in November 2013.
The Jaguar F-Type has a choice of two Meridian™ Sound Systems, specially created for both the F-Type Coupé and Convertible models. The Meridian™ 380W Sound System has 10 speakers including two subwoofers. The Meridian™ 825W Surround Sound System has 12 speakers with the additon of a centre channel and Trifield™ Surround Sound Processing.

Digital, active DSP crossovers were designed to distribute music to each speaker giving higher overall quality, less power use, and the performance of Meridian consumer loudspeakers.
Trifield
Meridian’s exclusive Trifield technology blends the centre and surround channels seamlessly with the left and right channels to deliver a consistent, concert-like experience, optimised for all seating positions.
Meridian Cabin Correction

“Clearly aimed at those who believe sporty doesn’t have to mean slumming it, the cabin is largely unchanged from the roadster’s and heavily biased towards comfort and feel-good gadgetry, of which the wholly unnecessary but rather cool kinetic air vent housing that glides into position from its dash top bunker when you press the engine start button and the extravagantly powerful Meridian sound system are perhaps the best examples.”
– David Vivian, EVO, Mar 2014.
“The 10-speaker Meridian sound system is as good as ever though.”
– Joe Simpson, Pocket-Lint, Apr 2015.
“Accompanying that is the aural soundtrack that makes fully-grown men grin like idiots, particularly in tunnels. Of all the cars that need a decent sound system (which ironically the F-Type R Coupe has, with its fabulous Meridian setup), this isn’t one of them.”
– Alborz Fallah, Car Advice, Jul 2014
“In the Range Rover , Range Rover Sport , and Jaguar F-type , we were treated to glorious audio reproduction, a balanced and rich sound that brought out the nuances in music. Even in the confined spaces of a car, and fed a variety of digital audio sources, the Meridian systems shine brightly.”
– CNET 2013 Car Tech Awards, Dec 2013
“Meridian’s Surround Sound System system sounds as weighty, powerful and engaging with the roof up as it does down. And, stuck in traffic, you really come to appreciate the addition of that centre channel and the Trifield technology that comes with it.The fact you have a decent soundstage front and centre really does add to the enjoyment.”
– Andy Madden, What Hi-Fi, Feb 2014
