Sound system

A sound system comprising:

• a control system that generates a control signal for canceling noise in a place close to a head of a user using a seat of an aircraft, from a signal of the noise (hereinafter, referred to as the noise signal);
• and
• a noise-cancellation speaker system including M speaker units that emit sound based on the control signal (hereinafter, referred to as the noise-cancellation speaker units), M being an integer equal to or larger than one, the noise-cancellation speaker system being installed at the place close to the head of the user using the seat, wherein
• assuming that the M noise-cancellation speaker units are a first noise-cancellation speaker unit, . . . , and an M-th noise-cancellation speaker unit, and
• assuming that a direction in which the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit faces the user is an m-th noise-cancellation user direction (m=1, . . . , M),
• the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit (m=1, . . . , M) is disposed such that sound emitted from the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit in the m-th noise-cancellation user direction is canceled in a place other than the place close to the head of the user using the seat, due to bending around of sound emitted from the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit in an opposite direction to the m-th noise-cancellation user direction,
• wherein a member is attached to the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit (m=1, . . . , M), the member being for lengthening a path of the sound bending around in the m-th noise-cancellation user direction, of the sound emitted from the m-th noise-cancellation speaker unit in the opposite direction to the m-th noise-cancellation user direction.
