"Say you're watching an edgy new streaming series and find yourself turning up the volume for every scene where two actors are engaged in a dramatic dialogue. It seems like both characters are whispering -- until an explosion happens on screen, and the sound is the opposite, almost deafening. Also: LG's new Dolby Atmos system promises immersive sound no matter where your speakers are"
"Excessive bass can hinder speech clarity, making words seem muffled or buried. Instead of adjusting individual bass and treble controls, begin by trying out the preset sound modes. Use your remote to locate the TV's Audio or Sound section. While watching a TV show or movie with substantial dialogue, cycle through the modes to determine which option provides the best (or clearest) sound quality -- such as Movie, User, or Standard."
Conversations can sound too quiet compared with explosions because TV audio mixes and enhancements can bury speech under bass and effects. Turning on closed captions immediately resolves comprehension issues without changing sound. If captions are undesirable, adjust audio settings: cycle preset sound modes (Movie, User, Standard) and try Dialog, News, or Speech Boost modes. Disable audio enhancements like Bass Boost or Surround if they reduce clarity, and slightly increase treble to improve intelligibility. Every TV and room have unique acoustics, so test multiple settings while playing dialogue-heavy content to identify the clearest configuration.
