Abstract
According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for calibrating a headphone including an amplifier with a memory and signal processing properties, the method comprising steps for determining a desired sound attributes for the headphone, and setting signal processing parameters in the amplifier in order to obtain the desired sound attributes either by measurement or based on the received input information from a user of the headphones.
Claims21
A method for calibrating a stereo headphone including an amplifier with a memory and signal processing properties, the method comprising steps for:
- calibrating each driver or ear cup of the headphone against a set reference ear cup or driver and storing the calibration settings in the memory of the amplifier.
An active stereo/binaural headphone system including headphone with at least one driver for each ear cup and an amplifier connected to the headphones by a cable, the system comprising:
- h. ear cups,
- i. means for signal processing in the amplifier,
- j. each of the drivers driver or the ear cup of the headphone is factory calibrated against a set reference like ear cup or driver and stored in a memory of the amplifier,
- k. means for storing at least two predefined equalization settings in the amplifier and
- l. means for noise cancelling in frequencies below 200 Hz.
A non-transitory computer readable medium configured to cause a method for calibrating a stereo headphone including an amplifier with a memory and signal processing properties to be performed, the method comprising steps for,
- calibrating each driver or ear cup of the headphone against a set reference ear cup or driver and storing the calibration settings in the memory of the amplifier.
