ABSTRACT:
A four-dimensional acoustical audio system utilizes both spatial and temporal signal processing to provide uniform sound throughout a range of ear levels in an enclosure and combines the output of loudspeakers above and below the desired level to substantially eliminate the perceived direction and location of the sound sources and effectively creates a phantom sound source at the desired level
