A multichannel acoustic system (MAS) comprises an arrangement of microphones, loudspeakers, and filters along with a multichannel acoustic processor (MAP) and other components to together provide and enhance the auditory experience of persons in a shared acoustic space such as, for example, the driver and other passengers in an automobile. Driver-specific features such as navigation and auditory feedback cues are described, as individual auditory customizations and collective communications both within the shared acoustic space as well as with other individuals not located in the space via enhanced conference call facilities.
