Abstract
A system for providing localized audio content from a remote control device. Embodiments of the present invention utilize the proximity of the remote control device to provide audio content directly to a user without disturbing others. The complexity of normal subwoofer setup is eliminated as subwoofer audio channel is wirelessly delivered to the remote control device and rendered there. Embodiments further include the necessary signal processing circuitry to generate audio channels and send the signal wirelessly for playback in proximity to user.
