Abstract: The invention is directed to a sound system with four loudspeakers and at least one signal processing device connected to the input of two loudspeakers and controlled by two input signals. The signal processing device produces control signals for the loudspeakers. The respective control signals are equal to the sum of the input signals which are weighted differently with respect to amplitude and phase, so that the radiation characteristic of the two loudspeakers depends on the weighting of the input signals.

Abstract: An audio processing system is provided for controlling the acoustics of a loudspeaker-room system. The loudspeaker-room system having a listening room and loudspeakers located in said listening room, and transfer functions with linear and non-linear components. The audio processing system comprises a compensator with a transfer function for obtaining at least two compensated signals from the input signals. The transfer functions of the compensator may include linear and non-linear components and are inverse to the transfer functions of the loudspeaker-room system to the extent that a desired overall transfer function is established.

Abstract: A noise reducing sound reproduction system and method may be operable with an input signal supplied to a loudspeaker by which it is acoustically radiated. The signal radiated by the loudspeaker may be received by a microphone that is acoustically coupled to the loudspeaker via a secondary path and that provides a microphone output signal. From the microphone output signal a useful-signal can be subtracted to generate a filter input signal. The filter input signal is filtered in an active noise reduction filter to generate an error signal, and the useful-signal is subtracted from the error signal to generate the loudspeaker input signal. In addition, the useful-signal is filtered by one or more spectrum shaping filters prior to subtraction from the microphone output signal or the loudspeaker input signal or both.

Abstract: A system is provided for enhancing a sound signal produced by an audio system in a listening environment by compensating for ambient noise in the listening environment. The system receives an electrical sound signal and generates a sound output therefrom. A total sound signal is sensed representative of the total sound level in the environment, where the total sound level includes the sound output and the ambient noise. The system extracts an ambient noise signal representative of the ambient noise from the total sound signal, using an adaptive filter with an adaptive step size, in response to the total sound signal and to a reference signal derived from the electrical sound signal. The system generates a control signal in response to the ambient noise signal and adjusts the sound output of the audio system to compensate for the ambient noise level in response to the control signal.

Abstract: A testing system tests an audio connection between an audio source and a loudspeaker. The system includes a loudspeaker that converts a reference signal into a sound. An adaptive filter processes the reference signal to minimize an error signal. A decision circuit analyzes the error signal and the received signal to determine signal correlation. When the signals are not correlated, a defect is detected.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing the sound signal produced by an audio system in a listening environment by compensating for ambient sound in the listening environment, comprises producing an audio sound in the time domain from an electrical sound signal in the time domain. The electrical sound signal in the time domain is transformed into an electrical sound signal in the frequency domain and the electrical sound signal in the frequency domain is retransformed into an audio sound in the time domain. The total sound level in the environment is measured and a signal representative thereof is generated. The audio sound signal and the total sound signal are processed to extract a signal representing the ambient sound level within the environment, and equalization is performed in the frequency domain to adjust the output from the audio sound signal to compensate for the ambient noise level.
