Abstract:
A personal audio system enabling a user to distinguish approximate locations of sound sources comprises at least one sound receiver. The sound receiver comprises a sound collecting structure for collecting sound. The sound collecting structure comprises a plurality of sound passages opening toward different directions and with different sizes to collect sound waves from the environment. The different sizes of the openings render a decline or an increase in specific frequency ranges of sound as a result of different resonances via the different openings. The user may therefore distinguish the direction of a sound source based on the slightly different pitches (frequencies) of the sound.

Claim (Index 15):
The personal audio system of  claim 14 , wherein the connecting unit is configured to connect the left speaker to the microphone of the left sound receiver and connect the right speaker to the microphone of the right sound receiver, the left speaker is arranged to face a left external auditory canal of a left ear of the user, and the right speaker is arranged to face a right external auditory canal of a right ear of the user.
