Abstract

A single enclosure multi-channel loudspeaker productcan use a transducer arrangement and signal processing system and method to generate the Stereo Dimensional Array ('SDA') effect (with effective interaural crosstalk cancelation (IACC)) including the generation of four distinct projections of sound in a listener's space from only three mid-bass drivers (e.g.L,C andR). The system and method of the present disclosure are configurable in a very compact soundbarwhose transducer arrangement permits reduced size and reduced driver count by employing a single center channel mid-bass transducerC with signal processing permitting reproduction of the two (L and R) channels associated with stereo or the multiple (e.g., 5.1.2) channels of home-theater audio bitstreams.
