The invention relates to a method and system for locating a sound source. The system comprises: - a receiving unit (311) for receiving navigating sound signals from at least two navigating sound sensors (21, 22, 23), and receiving a selection instruction comprising a signal segment type corresponding to the sound source, wherein the at least two navigating sound sensors are received in a chest-piece (20), - a selecting unit (312) for selecting a segment from each navigating sound signal according to the signal segment type, - a calculating unit (313) for calculating a difference between the segments selected from the navigating sound signal, and - a generating unit (314) for generating a moving indication signal for guiding moving the chest-piece (20) to the sound source according to the difference.
