Abstract: The data put to the digital filter operation and the data not put to the digital filter operation are synthesized together at a predetermined distribution ratio to form a stereophonic sound image. A digital filter operation is executed for forming a sound image in the vertical direction that reaches one ear being diffracted by the head, and a digital filter operation is executed for forming a sound image in the vertical direction in the other ear, thereby to form a stereophonic sound image in the vertical direction. Of the sound generated from one of the different sound systems, the sound reaching one ear is canceled and the only sound reaching the other ear is validated by generating a counterbalance sound component. Excess sound component is erased, the excess sound component being generated from the other sound system and being not desired for forming the stereophonic sound image.

Abstract: A stereophonic sound image enhancement apparatus subtracts a right input signal from a left input signal and amplifies the subtracted signal to produce a difference signal, and also subtracts a right crosstalk signal from a left low-frequency-range enhanced signal obtained by filtering the left input signal. Then, the difference signal is added to this subtracted signal, and the added signal is outputted as a left output signal. Also, the left crosstalk signal is subtracted from a right low-frequency-range enhanced signal obtained by filtering the right input signal, and the difference signal is subtracted from the subtracted signal to output the subtraction result as a right output signal.
