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 5):
The headphone arrangement of  claim 1 , wherein\n two or more loudspeakers are arranged on the frontal part of the frame; a representation of a perceptual relevant direction of sound propagation for each of the at least two loudspeakers is angled at a second angle (\u03c3) with respect to the horizontal plane; and the average of the second angles (\u03c3) of the individual loudspeakers is between about 10\u00b0 and about 40\u00b0 below the horizontal plane, wherein\n the representation of the perceptual relevant direction of sound propagation for each of the loudspeakers is the perpendicular projection onto the median plane of the direction of sound propagation from the acoustic center of the loudspeaker or the geometric center of the loudspeaker membrane towards a point on the first axis (x).
