  • Patent number: 10089064
    Abstract: An audio playback device includes a housing, an electroacoustic driver, and a wireless receiver capable of receiving first and second signals from respective first and second remote control devices. The first signal includes an identification of the first remote control device and an identification of the selected one of the first plurality of preset indicators. The second signal includes an identification of the second remote control device and an identification of the selected one of the second plurality of preset indicators. In response to receiving one of the first and second signals, the playback device is configured to use both the identification of the corresponding remote control device as well as the identification of the selected one of the corresponding plurality of preset indicators in the received signal to select an audio source.

  • Patent number: 9578436
    Abstract: An audio system for manipulating audio material for playback based on the content of the material includes an input for receiving input audio signals, an output for providing output audio signals to loudspeakers, and an audio processor that processes the input audio signals to produce the output audio signals. The audio processor determines a type of content represented by the input audio signals, selects a set of processing instructions to control the spatial presentation of the audio material based on the determined type, and applies the selected set of processing instructions to the input audio signals.
