Systems and methods for dynamic voice accentuation and reinforcement are presented herein. One embodiment comprises one or more audio input sources; one or more audio output sources; one or more band pass filters; and a processing control unit that includes an audio processing unit, and which executes a method: differentiating between audio input sources as vocal sound audio input sources and ambient noise audio input sources; increasing the gain of the vocal sound audio input sources; inverting a polarity of an ambient noise signal received by each of the ambient noise audio input sources; and adding the inverted polarity to either an output signal of at least one of the one or more audio output sources, or to an input signal of at least one of the vocal sound audio input sources, to reduce ambient noise.
