TV sound

Andy-P — Sat, 15 May 2021 05:45:10 GMT

I'm looking to buy a new TV, but one thing that frustrates me immensely is the sound volume difference between people talking and action, or music.

I find I'm constantly having to adjust the volume on my current TV (other brand) when watching a film, drama, etc so as not to have the sound blaring through my house.

Is there a current Sony TV which can be set up or adjusted to help equalise the volume differences between talking and action?

Thanks.

Hi Andy, most Sony TVs have many options to adjust the sound experience, check this: https://helpguide.sony.net/tv/haep1/v1/en/01-03-09_04.html?hl=sound

Thanks, that's interesting to see that there is a voice enhancer setting in that link you've given me.

Do you have any experience of how effective it is?

Thanks again.

I haven't experienced it firsthand, but I've seen it described here before as "boosting dialogue, while not affecting background audio, it's like a zoom, if you will".

I found that very interesting so it stuck in my head 😅

Hope this helps!

Also, for the record, I wouldn't make a purchase on that basis, I'd either try it at a friend/colleague/family member's or at a store, if possible.
