Vehicle-mounted stereophonic sound field reproducer/silencer
First Claim
1. A three dimensional sound field reproducing unit comprising:
- at least two speakers respectively disposed for both left and right sides of listener and these speakers disposed for each of seats to be occupied by listeners so as to generate a three dimensional sound field space in a region inclusive of left and right external ears of each of the listeners; and
three dimensional signal processing means for converting an output signal from a sound source into a three dimensional sound field signal for supplying it to each of said speakers.

Abstract
A vehicle-mounted three dimensional sound signal reproducing-silencing unit includes at least two speakers disposed for each of seats to be occupied by listeners so as to generate a three dimensional sound field space in a region inclusive of left and right external ears of each of the listeners, and three dimensional signal processing means for converting an output signal from a sound source into a three dimensional sound field signal for supplying it to each of the speakers, thereby reproducing a three dimensional sound field with rich presence for each of the seats. The unit also includes antiphase signal generating means for supplying a silencing signal to the three dimensional signal processing means, thereby silencing sounds for each of the seats without giving an effect on the other seats.

6. A three dimensional sound field silencing unit comprising:
-
at least two speakers respectively disposed for both left and right sides of listener and these speakers disposed for each of seats to be occupied by listeners so as to generate a three dimensional sound field space in a region inclusive of left and right external ears of each of the listeners;
three dimensional signal processing means for converting an output signal from a sound source into a three dimensional sound field signal for supplying it to each of said speakers;
volume detecting means for detecting volume in the three dimensional sound field space; and
antiphase signal generating means for supplying a silencing signal that cancels a vehicle noise based on the detected volume from said volume detecting means to said three dimensional signal processing means.
