Abstract:
A system and method for applying an individual volume control setting to individual sound zones as set by a user. When the individual volume control setting differs from a master volume control setting, the individual volume control setting is applied to the low frequency component of the audio signal. Headrest and optional height speakers for each individual sound zone's independent volume setting are applied to the mid and high frequency components of the audio signal.

Claim (Index 4):
A computer readable medium comprising a program for an audio signal to be played at a plurality of speakers in a vehicle audio system, the program is executed by at least one processor to perform the steps of:\n applying a master volume control setting to the audio signal; separating the audio signal into low, mid-range, and high frequency components; passing the low frequency component to a mono configuration; passing the mid-range and high-frequency components to a stereo configuration; applying an individual volume control setting to each individual sound zone in a plurality of individual sound zones for any volume control setting that differs from the master volume control setting, the individual volume control setting is applied to the low frequency component of the audio signal; routing the frequency components to predetermined speakers of the plurality of speakers.
