Abstract
An audio system processes a multi-channel input audio signal into a stereo signal for left and right speakers, while preserving the spatial sense of the sound field of the input audio signal. The multi-channel input audio signal includes a first left-right channel pair including a left input channel and a right input channel, and a second left-right channel pair including a left peripheral input channel and a right peripheral input channel. Subband spatial processing may be applied to the first and second left-right channel pairs. A first crosstalk processing is applied to the first left-right channel pair to generate first crosstalk processed channels. A second crosstalk processing is applied to the second left-right channel pair to generate second crosstalk processed channels. A left output channel and a right output channel are generated from the first and second crosstalk processed channels. The crosstalk processing may include crosstalk cancellation or crosstalk simulation.
