Honestly the only numbers I care about are Range Rover sales – do they even sell other models?  And what does that “Jaguar” thing mean in the company name?  I can’t even remember anymore.

Why isn’t every single, possible, absolute chip, door, tire, steering wheel, speaker, piece of leather, man-hour that is needed, taken from Jaguar and put into a Land Rover. (Not a question, just my uninformed opinion)

Agility is everything – send the behavioral scientists, I mean marketing team to make chips & amplifiers!

Quick, quick someone tell Land Rover!!

It presents an enveloping sound experience using 29 speakers, a new subwoofer and up to 1,430W of amplifier power – including four headrest speakers that enable those travelling in the four main seats of the vehicle to experience personal sound zones.

From the Meridian documents, the Signature System showing the active headrests, marked as #9:
