Audioscenic Announces Headphone Audio Support for Amphi Suite

November 21 2023, 01:10
Audioscenic, the UK-based spatial computing startup that enabled the very first consumer-focused true 3D audio speaker, announced that its Amphi software package now also supports headphone processing. The Amphi software suite integrates 3D audio beamforming technology with a wide range of consumer computing devices, and this update adds HRTF virtualization for multichannel surround content giving users the ability to also listen through headphones. 
 

This forward-thinking update makes the Audioscenic Amphi suite an even more versatile solution to deliver spatial audio to consumers. With the new added headphone components, users can enjoy spatial audio reproduction of multichannel surround audio over headphones, and also personalize headphone EQ to a given headphone model.

"This software update is a much-needed addition to our suite, as PC ecosystem partners were requesting the ability to provide spatial audio reproduction through headphones and also to add customization for their customers," says Audioscenic CTO Marcos Simón. "Now, Audioscenic can offer a complete audio solution for all their customers including both speaker and headphone audio processing. Now, when consumers switch to headphones instead of speaker audio, they will still be able to consume spatial sound."

Support for the Amphi Suite in Windows was announced early in June 2023 at the Computex trade show. At that time, Audioscenic announced the first implementation of their technology as a Windows APO that contained the Audioscenic 3D audio beamforming technology for spatial audio reproduction through speakers. With the newly added headphone components, users can enjoy spatial audio reproduction over headphones of multichannel surround audio and also personalize headphone EQ to a given headphone model.
 

The Audioscenic team is also working on future releases of the Amphi headphone technology, including the ability to perform dynamic head-tracking to provide an even more enhanced sound immersion. "With or without headphones, we're creating a completely customizable spatial audio experience that is accessible to anyone without needing to heavily invest in audio hardware," adds David Monteith, Audioscenic CEO. "Audioscenic's mission as a company is to make the everyday spatial audio experience a fact of life - integrating into anywhere in the house where you might hear audio and benefit from that immersion, be it with gaming, movies, or music listening."

The Audioscenic team will be attending CES 2024 in Las Vegas where they will have a number of demo systems featuring the new Amphi Suite (laptops, monitors, desktop soundbars) and showcase new products based on the technology.
