and wherein the step of receiving comprises:
detecting said sound signal and generating a respective electric or electronic signal representative of the detected sound signal;
generating one or more tactile stimuli by generating pressure waves and acoustic vibrations by means of a source of pressure waves and acoustic vibrations, wherein said pressure waves and acoustic vibrations are perfectly synchronized with the said audio;
modulating said one or more tactile stimuli on the basis of said electric or electronic signal to generate one or more modulated tactile stimuli;
applying said one or more modulated tactile stimuli on a listener, together with a sound diffusion of the musical or voice or sound audio, so that the listener can enjoy the musical or voice or sound audio both by means of auditory stimuli and by means of tactile stimuli.
