A sound reproduction system of a signal, comprising: at least a first canalphone configured for receiving a digital signal, converting said digital signal to an analog signal, and subsequently reproducing said analog signal; the system further comprising a transceiver connected via a multiplexed digital data channel, of a bidirectional type, to said first canalphone, said transceiver configured to receive said digital signal and transmit said digital signal to said at least one first canalphone, to control, store, and modify audio reproduction said parameters, and to receive, from said at least one first canalphone, further microphone signals and digital commands; first processing means of digital signals sent and transmitted by said transceiver; a bidirectional communication serial BUS connecting said transceiver to said at least one first canalphone; a converter means circuit configured to process for processing digital signals that are sent within said bidirectional communication serial BUS; second processing means placed downstream of said converter means and connected to at least one class D amplifier, said at least one class D amplifier incorporated into at least one respective canalphone and configured for performing conversion of the digital signals output by said second processing means into analog signals.
2 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said parameters of a multimedia element are: delays, frequencies, volume, and balance of said signal between left and right ears of said user.
3 . The system according to claim 1 , further comprising an interface for customization management and modification of said parameters, said interface located downstream of said transceiver.
4 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein microphone signals taken from at least a first microphone are sent to a processing media.
5 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said transceiver comprises at least a second microphone integrated and configured to pick up signals emitted in the proximity of a user of the system and direct them to said canalphone.
6 . The system according to claim 5 , wherein said transceiver comprises a first button configured to allow listening to what is captured by said first and/or second microphone, a second button configured to allow listening to what is stored in said transceiver, and a third button configured to allow control, selection, and modification of what is stored in said transceiver.
7 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein the multiplexed digital data channel further comprises a power signal for said at least one first canalphone.
8 . A method for sound reproduction by the system according to claim 1 , the method comprising:
A. interacting, by the user during an initialization phase, on said transceiver and modifying said parameters to achieve a specific adaptation of said system;
B. customizing, in a customization phase, and storing of said parameters as modified, wherein initialization phase and customization phase are either sequential or concurrent.
9 . The process according to claim 8 , wherein said initialization phase, the user interacts on said transceiver via a first button, a second button, and a third button and/or interface.
10 . The method according to claim 8 , wherein the customization phase comprises all or some of:
(a) emitting typical or stored signals from said transceiver and changing said parameters;
b) emitting pre-recorded, user-specific signals from said interface to said transceiver and then to said canalphone and possible customisation of said parameters; and
c) collecting music or sound signals via said first and/or second microphone and customizing said parameters.
11 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said canalphone is physically adapted to an ear based on a physiological structure of the ear.
12 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said transceiver comprises a screen configured to display various selectable settings.
13 . The system according to claim 1 , further comprising a bodypack configured for backward compatibility with existing systems.
14 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said transceiver is configured to communicate with a mobile device via Bluetooth® or other wireless technology.
15 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said canalphone is configured to receive a pre-distorted signal from said transceiver.
16 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said transceiver comprises a Lavalier microphone, a precision microphone, or otherwise any type of microphone.
17 . The system according to claim 1 , wherein said first processing means is located within said transceiver and is configured to process said digital signal, and wherein said processed digital signal is transmitted over said bidirectional communication serial BUS to at least one canalphone, the canalphone comprising at least one said class D amplifier.
