Abstract

A crosstalk canceler wherein different frequency bands are canceled at different locations so as to allow greater listener movement about the “sweet spot” while maintaining effective crosstalk cancellation. A spectrally smooth canceler equalization is used, reducing artifacts for listeners away from the sweet spot and further enlarging the sweet spot. Finally, the canceler equalization is adapted to either the anticipated or the actual crosscoherence among the input channels, producing a natural equalization regardless of the input.
