Abstract (en)
A consumer electronics device (100) is configured to enhance an audio signal output by the consumer electronics device (100). The consumer electronics device (100) determines a volume level of the audio signal output by the consumer electronics device (100). The consumer electronics device (100) applies a gain to at least one frequency band of the audio signal so as to enhance a speech portion of the audio signal. The applied gain is a function of the determined volume level. This allows the speech portion of the audio signal to be boosted to make the speech portion more distinguishable.
