Abstract: Embodiments relate to audio processing for opposite facing speaker configurations that results in multiple optimal listening regions around the speakers. A system includes a left speaker and a right speaker in an opposite facing speaker configuration, and a crosstalk cancellation processor connected with the left speaker and the right speaker. The crosstalk cancellation processor applies a crosstalk cancellation to an input audio signal to generate left and right output channels. The left output channel is provided to the left speaker and the right output channel is provided to the right speaker to generate sound including multiple crosstalk cancelled listening regions that are spaced apart.

Abstract: An audio system provides for soundstage-conserving channel summation. The system includes circuitry that generates a first rotated component and a second rotated component by rotating a pair of audio signal components. The circuitry generates left quadrature components that are out of phase with each other using the first rotated component and generates right quadrature components that are out of phase with each other using the second rotated component. The circuitry generates orthogonal correlation transform (OCT) components based on the left and right quadrature components. Each OCT component including a weighted combination of a left quadrature component and a right quadrature component. The circuitry generates a mono output channel using one or more of the OCT components.
