Crossover Frequency Adjustments for Audio Speakers
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- causing a first subset of a plurality of audio speakers to render a first sub-range of a range of audio frequencies of an audio content, and a second subset of the plurality of audio speakers to render a second sub-range of the range of audio frequencies, wherein the first sub-range and the second sub-range are substantially separated at a first crossover frequency;
detecting a playback volume adjustment of the audio content rendered by the plurality of speakers; and
causing an adjustment of the first crossover frequency substantially separating the first sub-range and second sub-range based on the adjusted playback volume.

Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for adjusting a crossover frequency between a plurality of audio speakers rendering audio content. In one example, a first subset of a plurality of audio speakers may be rendering a first sub-range of a range of audio frequencies of an audio content, and a second subset of speakers of the plurality of audio speakers may be rendering a second sub-range of the range of audio frequencies. In this example, the first sub-range and the second sub-range may be substantially separated at the crossover frequency. In one case, a playback volume at which the audio content is being rendered may be adjusted. In one instance, the crossover frequency may be adjusted in response to the volume adjustment to improve the audio content rendering quality by the respective subsets of audio speakers in the plurality of audio speakers.
