Abstract
Techniques are disclosed for an audiovisual system having a display screen that is solid and/or otherwise non-transparent to sound. The sound output from a loudspeaker is oriented to intersect with a portion of the display screen, and a reflection of the sound off of the display screen is directed toward a viewing position in the audiovisual system. Further signal processing techniques to generate sound for output by a loudspeaker oriented at the display screen and other loudspeakers are disclosed. Additionally, other signal processing and control techniques are disclosed that affect audio and video output in the audiovisual system.
