Abstract:
A headphone arrangement is configured to induce natural directional pinna cues. The arrangement comprises an ear cup comprising a frame configured to at least partly encircle the ear of a user, wherein the frame is at least partially hollow. The arrangement further comprises a loudspeaker arranged within a wall of a frontal part, a rear part, an upper part, and/or a lower part of the frame, the loudspeaker comprising a membrane, a first side of the membrane facing a cavity inside the frame, and a second side of the membrane facing the outside. At least one loudspeaker is arranged at a first angle with respect to a median plane crossing a user's head midway between the user's ears such that a main direction of sound propagation is directed away from the median plane, and the second side of the membrane is directed away from the median plane.

Claim (Index 9):
The headphone arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein at least one extended sound source is arranged within the frame of the ear cup, wherein\n the extended sound source has an extension of at least 25 mm along an axis parallel to the median plane; and the extended sound source comprises at least one of: at least two loudspeakers that are arranged adjacent to each other to form an extended sound source that approximately matches a dimension of the pinna or concha parallel to the median plane; and\n a single loudspeaker that approximately matches a dimension of the pinna or concha parallel to the median plane.
