Abstract:
Various implementations include vehicle audio systems and related control methods. In some particular implementations, an audio system is configured to present audio content to a vehicle occupant to modify the perceived size of the vehicle cabin relative to its actual physical size.

Claim (Index 18):
A computer-implemented method of controlling an audio system in a vehicle, the audio system comprising: a plurality of speakers located in the vehicle; at least one transducer affixed to an overhead structure of the vehicle; and an amplifier connected with the plurality of speakers and the at least one transducer, the method comprising:\n receiving entertainment audio signals from an external source; and from the entertainment audio signals, generating spatially enhanced entertainment audio content for output at the plurality of speakers, and generating reverberant content for output at the at least one transducer, wherein presentation of both the spatially enhanced entertainment audio content and the reverberant content within a cabin of the vehicle causes an occupant of the vehicle to have a first auditory perception of a size of the cabin while presentation of only the spatially enhanced entertainment audio content within the cabin causes the occupant to have a second, different auditory perception of the size of the cabin.
