Abstract
A corrector is configured to transform audio signals to compensate for unwanted distortion characteristics of a loudspeaker. A tuning filter is configured to transform audio signals to incorporate desired distortion characteristics associated with a target loudspeaker. By chaining together the tuning filter and the corrector, an audio signal can be modified so that the loudspeaker, when outputting the audio signal, has response characteristics of the target loudspeaker.
