ABSTRACT:
A low frequency audio conversion circuit for converting the frequency of low frequency audio components. An input audio signal includes a low frequency audio component lower than the frequency a speaker can reproduce. The low frequency audio component is filtered and extracted by a low pass filter and full-wave rectified to generate even-numbered harmonics of the low frequency audio component. Secondary harmonics are extracted from the even-numbered harmonics and added to the input audio signal after being amplified to an appropriate level. When a speaker whose low frequency sound reproduction characteristics are poor is used, and a low frequency component lower than the frequency the speaker can reproduce is supplied, the low frequency audio component is reproduced as secondary harmonics which fall within the frequency range of the speaker. Thus, the low frequency audio component is compensated, and a powerful sound is reproduced at a low cost without degrading the sound.
