   QSound is essentially a filtering algorithm. It manipulates timing, amplitude, and frequency response to produce a binaural image.Systems like QSound rely on the fact that a sound arriving from one side of the listener will reach one ear before the other and that when it reaches the furthest ear, it is lower in amplitude and spectrally altered due to obstruction by the head.

8. Audio headset - Wikipedia

9. Active noise control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_noise_control

   The term 1-dimension refers to a simple pistonic relationship between the noise and the active speaker (mechanical noise reduction) or between the active speaker and the listener (headphones). Protection of a 3-dimensional zone requires many microphones and speakers, making it more expensive.
