The paper discusses the psychoacoustical background and the computational issues for the real-time implementation of a complete Ambiophonics reproduction system based on binaural technology. This method, which requires only two media channels, evolved from previously known approaches, such as the crosstalk-free reproduction of binaural recordings over closely spaced loudspeakers through crosstalk cancellation, and reconstruction of hall ambience by convolution from suitable impulse responses.
