Dialogue can be quiet because modern movies and TV shows often use dynamic sound mixing, meaning there's a wider range between the loud and soft sounds. Adjust your TV's sound settings to ‘Dialogue’ or ‘Night mode’. Alternatively, enable subtitles or use a soundbar to enhance dialogue clarity. This ensures you don’t miss out on important conversations.
