I attempted this shortly after my patent was granted. Nobody of 20 major manufacturers was interested at the time. DSP was a way into the future. No one even wanted a demo. Then Yamaha's DSP-1 appeared. It meets the minimum criteria for a critical circuit in my invention. The fact that it originally sold for $900 and is lucky to get even $100 on E-bay today is testamony to the fact that there is little interest in it. Hardly surprising to me because as is typical of those interested in this audio product lines, most have far greater interest in running down the same blind dead end alleys and bashing their heads into the same imovable brick wall than they are in pursuing something somewhat more difficult that actually stands a chance of working. Want more proof? OK, I've written about the advantages of indirect firing tweeters for improving the sound of loudspeakers for years. It is nether difficult nor expensive but how many people have even tried it. Very few I'd bet. It's easier to go shopping for new expensive equipment which promises a holy grail than to actually experiment. It seems all of the red blood has gone out of the American male. He'd rather sit in front of a TV set, a computer, or a store bought audio system than actually use his hands and brains. Small wonder most of them are so fat.
