Abstract
A device including a processor and a memory is disclosed. The memory includes programming instructions which when executed by the processor perform an operation. The operation includes detecting relative position of two earphones when connected to the device, determining if a binaural signal processing mode is appropriate based on the detected relative position and switching to the binaural signal processing mode. If it is determined that the binaural signal processing mode is not appropriate, switching to monaural processing mode.
