    It is why I enable "Loudness Equalization" on every audio device in Windows.

    It makes soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer.

    Can't stand it otherwise either.

      Been there the hard way. I got Tubular Bells II, and listened to it via headphones (I had no speakers).

      There is one passage where the music ends, and a child speaks. It was hard to understand, so I turned the volume to 11, and heard the end of the sentence like "and nothing was ever heard of him again but the sound of tu-bu-lar bells." The next sound was the BANG of the tubular bells, making my eardrums meet somewhere in the middle. somewhere...

          It was great in cinema. It's terrible at home.

          Frankly annoying as hell that shows and movies can basically only be enjoyed in a cinema or with headphones.

          Where's the audio equivalent of HDR?

            My guess is the newest movie trilogy. Maybe the newest shows? Picard and/or that Netflix one? Discovery?

              There's HDR for displays, which increases the dynamic range, but there's also HDR for photos, where the dynamic range is compressed. So maybe they meant the latter? Very not confusing naming...

              What about the HDR on my HDR TV that just makes all colors darker when enabling HDR?

                It's the TV. No one should expect TV speakers to be worth anything. Even getting one of the cheapest sound bars or even computer speakers will make a noticable difference

                  You can get an audio compressor extension on most browsers too. It functions by reducing volume above a threshold and increasing overall output to compensate.

                  On the flip side, if a poor audio mixer overly does this to make their track sound louder, services such as YouTube penalize the volume of the entire audio track.

                  Human ears are more sensitive to certain sounds, so boosting certain frequencies can make something sound louder without necessarily increasing the overall amplitude of the sound waves (air pressure).

                    Right now TNG. I'm re-watching it with my fiancé. The sound of the ship whooshing past is deafening.

                    It's been a minute since I've seen the rest of the shows. So I don't remember how good their mixing is.

                        Or films from Spain. They whisper in a mumbled accent, then all of a sudden they start SCREAMING at each other.

                          I feel like the real issue, is that we only get one volume bar. If it was normal to define both the minimal and maximal volume setting and have the players stretch the given dynamic range into that then it would all be good.

                                    Because a video game is a program that can change it's behavior as it's running.

                                    A video is a recording. It's already been recorded.

                                      In games these categories of audio are calculated and mixed locally in real time, for movies they are mixed down to a single track and compressed ahead of time.

                                      These days having three audio tracks would not be a significant problem, compared to the high resolution video track. But I guess the industry never changed.

                                        If you want your TV to have an audio system on par with the 4k OLED display it's going to cost twice as much and weigh three hundred pounds. And be gargantuan. Speakers need space to move air and resonate.

                                          A sub would help, it would divert some of the responsibility away from your driver's there. It could then focus a bit more on dialogue, and you could probably tweak the EQ to be more friendly towards the mids. That being said, play with the EQ in general, you might be able to squeeze a bit more out of your current ones
