Abstract
A networked speaker system includes plural speaker assemblies around the perimeter of a space with sound axes oriented up and inward into the space. Each speaker assembly includes an audio transducer to output demanded sound and a noise cancelation transducer which is driven to cancel sound from other speaker assemblies in the space based on signals from a microphone on the speaker assembly and location and device information from the other speaker assemblies.
