A sound control apparatus for a vehicle is capable of implementing a separated sound zone in response to a change in position of a passenger's head. A separated sound zone control method for a vehicle includes determining a current position of the passenger's head, and when the determined current head position corresponds to a predicted head position, outputting an output sound datum corresponding to the predicted head position through a plurality of speakers, where the output sound datum is selected by applying a sound data sample to a control filter set configured to form a separated sound zone corresponding to the predicted head position.
