A sound signal processing device supplies an output sound signal to an amplification device configured to supply a first sound signal to a high-frequency speaker and a low-frequency speaker. The sound signal processing device includes a high-pass filter, an amplitude limitation circuit, a low-pass filter, and a synthesis circuit. The high-pass filter removes a low-frequency component from an input sound signal to generate a high-frequency sound signal. The amplitude limitation circuit limits an amplitude of the input sound signal at or below a reference value to generate a second sound signal. The reference value corresponds to a clipping voltage of the amplification device. The low-pass filter removes a high-frequency component from the second sound signal to generate a low-frequency sound signal. The synthesis circuit synthesizes the high-frequency sound signal and the low-frequency sound signal to generate the output sound signal.

A system includes one or more computing devices that encode spatial perceptual cues into a monaural channel to generate a plurality of output channels. A computing device determines a target amplitude response for the mid and side channels of the plurality of output channels, defining a spatial perceptual associated with one or more frequency-dependent phase shifts. The computing device determines a transfer function of a single-input, multi-output allpass filter based on the target amplitude response and determines coefficients of the allpass filter based on the transfer function, and processes the monaural channel with the coefficients of the allpass filter to generate the plurality of channels having the encoded spatial perceptual cues. The allpass filter is configured to be colorless with respect to the individual output channels, allowing for the placement of spatial cues into the audio stream to be decoupled from the overall coloration of the audio.

An electronic device and method for generating an audio signal is provided. According to various example embodiments, an electronic device may include a display configured to depict visual information to the outside of the electronic device. The electronic device further includes an actuator to cause the display to vibrate. A processor is electrically connected to the actuator and the display. The processor applies a pilot signal to the actuator, and detects an amount of vibration of the display caused by applying the pilot signal. The processor sets an environment of the audio signal based on the amount of vibration of the display.

Examples described herein involve configuring a playback device based on distortion, such as that caused by a barrier. One implementation may involve causing the playback device to play audio content according to an existing playback configuration, determining an existing frequency response of the playback device in a given system, and determining whether a difference between the existing frequency response of the playback device in the given system and a predetermined frequency response for the playback device is greater than a predetermined distortion threshold. If it is determined that the difference between the existing frequency response of the playback device and the predetermined frequency response for the playback device is greater than the predetermined distortion threshold, then the existing playback configuration of the playback device is changed to an updated playback configuration of the playback device and the playback device plays audio content according to the updated playback configuration.
