Abstract
In various embodiments, a method includes receiving a first audio channel signal; causing a first driver and a second driver of an audio output device to output a first frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a first power output; causing the first driver to output a second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a second power output; and causing the second driver to output the second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a third power output that is higher than the second power output, wherein the second frequency range is higher than the first frequency range.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving a first audio channel signal;
- causing a first driver and a second driver of an audio output device to output a first frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a first power output;
- causing the first driver to output a second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a second power output;
- and
- causing the second driver to output the second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a third power output that is higher than the second power output, wherein the second frequency range is higher than the first frequency range.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform the steps of:
- receiving a first audio channel signal;
- causing a first driver and a second driver of an audio output device to output a first frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a first power output;
- causing the first driver to output a second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a second power output;
- and
- causing the second driver to output the second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a third power output that is higher than the second power output, wherein the second frequency range is higher than the first frequency range.
An audio device, comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor coupled to the memory that executes the instructions to perform the steps of:
- receiving a first audio channel signal;
- causing a first driver and a second driver of an audio output device to output a first frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a first power output;
- causing the first driver to output a second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a second power output;
- and
- causing the second driver to output the second frequency range of the first audio channel signal with a third power output that is higher than the second power output, wherein the second frequency range is higher than the first frequency range.
