Abstract:
There is provided a method and corresponding system for determining phase adjustment filters for an associated sound generating system including at least two audio reproduction channels C1 and C2 where each of the audio reproduction channels C1 and C2 has an input signal and at least one loudspeaker located in a listening environment. The method includes estimating, for each of the audio reproduction channels C1 and C2, an acoustic transfer function at each of M≥1 spatial positions in the listening environment, based on sound measurements at the spatial positions; and determining, based on the acoustic transfer functions, phase adjustment filters F1 and to be applied, respectively, to the audio reproduction channels C1 and C2, to reduce the inter-loudspeaker differential phase, IDP, between the audio reproduction channels C1 and C2 in p listener positions.
