Methods are provided for equalizing the group delay of a sound reproduction system, in particular a system comprising acoustic transducers with at least one crossover between a lower-frequency and a higher-frequency range. A correction is applied to a signal in the lower-frequency range, including the crossover region, to substantially equalize the group delay for the lower-frequency range, and a signal delay is applied to a signal in the higher-frequency range to bring it into closer alignment with the equalized lower-frequency range signal. The methods may be implemented in the design of an acoustic transducer system and also via a computer program product, which can be implemented as an update or enhancement to an existing digital signal processor loudspeaker system.
