About HeadRoom Crossfeed
Headphones are actually capable of much more accurate sound than speakers on a performance-per-dollar basis. Why, then, don’t people use headphones more extensively for high-end listening? The answer, we believe, is that there are some fundamentally unnatural things about the way you perceive the location of the sounds you hear on headphones, and that artificiality gets in the way of having a gratifying listening experience.

Scientists and engineers have been working on the problem of fixing the sound from headphones for a long time, but there has never been a large enough economic justification to put the necessary resources into the problem. Today, that is all beginning to change: the incredible growth in portable player use; the large numbers of people using headphones with their computers; and the generally more mobile lifestyle of today’s music & movie fan make headphone listening a potentially significant activity for serious research dollars to further investigate this topic.

Exactly that has occured, creating commercial interest in solving some of the psychoacoustic problems of headphones and spurring a number of companies -- with HeadRoom at the forefront -- to develop products and technologies intended to make audio sound more natural and truly life-like on headphones.
