Abstract:
An example method is performed by a media playback system comprising a plurality of audio drivers configured to output audio content according to a first radiation pattern that produces an inherent directional effect. Based on data indicating characteristics of a listening area in which the media playback system operates, the system determines first and second transfer functions corresponding to the first and second audio drivers, respectively. One or both of the transfer functions configure the first and second audio drivers to output audio content according to a second radiation pattern that produces a modified directional effect relative to the first radiation pattern. The system applies the transfer function to audio content thereby causing the first and second audio drivers to play back audio content according to the second radiation pattern.

Claim (Index 7):
The media playback system of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a first playback device housing the first audio driver; and a second device housing the second audio driver, wherein the operations further comprise:\n causing the first audio driver to play back the first channel of the multi-channel audio content in synchrony with the second audio driver playing back the second channel of the multi-channel audio content.
