Approximated Virtual Source Imaging System for a Pair of Closely Spaced Loudspeakers

Abstract

This paper presents an approximated virtual source imaging system based on crosstalk cancellation with a pair of closely spaced loudspeakers. Utilizing the frequency-dependent relative importance of sound localization cues, the proposed system provides separate approximations for the low- and high-frequency bands. Experimental results show that the system provides good approximations within ±55° in the stereo dipole setup with natural sound quality.
