Definitions
- the invention relates to an audio system as described in the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention further relates to bass stop filter means.
- An object of the invention is to improve the received audio signals in cases where the low frequency signals may not be supplied to the loudspeakers.
- a first aspect of the invention provides an audio system as defined in claim 1.
- the invention is based on the recognition that in cases where the really low frequency signals are not allowed to be supplied to the loudspeakers, for example, because people living in the neighborhood (the non-voluntary listeners) do not want to hear those bass signals it is possible to block these really low frequency signals and at the same time by using the ultra bass feature to give the people who are listening (the voluntary listeners) to the audio signals the perception that the bass signals are good.
- An embodiment of an audio signal according to the invention comprises the features of claim 2.
- FIG. 1 shows a block schematic example of an audio system of the invention.
- the figure shows a schematic example of an audio system AS.
- the audio system receives an audio signal.
- This audio signal is supplied to enhancing means EM.
- the enhancing means comprise band pass filter means BPF for selecting a part of the audio signal (the low frequency part).
- the output of the band pass filter means is coupled with a so-called non-linear device (for example a harmonic generator or integrator etc).
- the non-linear device creates harmonics of the signals, which are supplied by the band pass filter.
- the output of the non-linear device is supplied to a low pass filter for filtering out the higher frequency components.
- the output signal of the enhancing means is supplied to summing means SUM.
- the summing means receives a signal from band stop filter means BSF which band stop filter means filter out the low frequency components of the input audio signal for example.
- the output of the summing means SUM is supplied to the output O of the audio system.
- the output O can be coupled to loudspeaker means, etc.
- the enhancing means EM can for example be implemented as described in EP Application No. 98202998.5 (Applicants reference PHN17'.092), which document and its corresponding applications is herewith incorporated by reference.
