Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0833302A2] Right and left sound signals (R, L) output from a sound signal source (20) are supplied to any one of a plurality of crosstalk cancelling circuits (6 - 10) depending on actual user-selected arrangement of right and left speakers (30R, 30L) relative to a listener, where the supplied sound signals are subjected to processing to cancel unwanted crosstalk at a listening position of the listener. The thus-processed sound signals are then passed to power amplifiers (31R, 31L) to be audibly reproduced via the right and left speakers (30R, 30L). In this manner, a sound field reproducing device is provided which is capable of effectively cancelling crosstalk in a variety of possible speaker arrangements. <IMAGE>
