Abstract
An audio signal processing system for a vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle has a plurality of audio output producing devices. The system includes an audio input circuit, a processor, an audio output circuit, and at lease one speaker. The audio input circuit receives a plurality of audio signals from the plurality audio output producing devices. The processor is in communication with the audio input circuit for combining the plurality of audio signals. The audio output circuit is in communication with the audio input circuit for receiving the combined plurality of audio output signals. The audio output circuit conditions the plurality of audio signals for output. The at least one speaker broadcasts the conditioned plurality of audio signals to a vehicle occupant.
