Loud and soft are highly
subjective terms.
This is why TV often causes quarrels among
friends or within the family. What sounds soft to
one person may be too loud for the next.
Of course, the volume should be set so that every-
body gets all the dialog but turning the volume up
does not necessarily mean the dialog becomes
any clearer and certainly won’t create a pleasant,
relaxed mood.
Sounds familiar?
The reasons are simple.
Everybody perceives sound differently, and your
left ear may be more sensitive than your right ear.
This means that sometimes it would be better if
the sound were a little louder at one ear than it is
at the other.
Another reason is that most headphones are de-
signed for music reproduction. If you just turn up
the volume of your TV set, the ambient sounds and
music become louder too so you won’t hear the
actors’ voices any better.
The comfortable TV headphones from AKG have
been optimized for speech reproduction and al-
low you to adjust the left/right volume ratio. They
bring a new level of fun to TV watching.
