Finally an explanation that makes sense. We pretty much always have subtitles turned of for movies, even some "normal" TV shows. The volume control is never far from my fingers either!

I certainly hope the situation improves. We have turned up the "dialogue" volume through our TV's setting, and it has at least helped.

Ours doesn't have that feature (not an old set either), but I will toggle through the different sound settings to get the best for a particular show/movie as well as keeping the sub-titles on most times. First world problems...

I'd actually considered adding the "First word problems" line to the column, since in the grand scheme of things, it's a pretty minor gripe.

Nice piece.

Subtitles are my best buddy.
