Hard to Hear the TV? Here is the SOLUTION!

Nowadays, almost everyone uses Flat-screen TV. The problem with the flat-screen TV is that many people complain that they have difficulty hearing the dialogue. This can be a little bit true because Flatscreen TVs are so thin that there's very little room for the speakers to fit in. Which ultimately results in they can also sounding thin. Or it can be a sign of hearing loss. But wait, before blaming the TV or yourself, let's have a look to see if we can sort out the issue.

Change your TV's sound settings.

Most TVs have settings that can be altered to improve their audio. To do that, follow the steps:

1. Go to the TV's settings menu using the remote> look for a section called Audio, Sound, or something similar to it.
2. There should be a selection of presets such as Movie, User, or Standard.
3. Play with the modes while watching a speech-heavy show or movie to see which ones sound best.

Change your Soundbar or Speaker Settings

External speakers sound much better than what comes as built into your TV. Changing the speaker setting may drastically improve the quality of sound.

1. Your speakers shouldn’t be too close to the wall or stuffed inside a cabinet.
2. If you have a soundbar, try changing the soundbar's setting to a speech-enhancing mode, Movie, or Standard like the TV.
3. If your system has a subwoofer, it shouldn't be too loud compared to the rest of the system.
4. If you have a separate bass or sub-control, turning it down may also enhance the quality of the sound.
5. If you have tower or bookshelf speakers, moving them away from the walls and corners may also improve the sound quality. Point them towards the middle where you sit.

Replace Your Speakers

If the previous solutions aren't working for you, then maybe it’s time for you to invest in some new equipment. Nowadays, excellent soundbars are affordable, and almost anything will sound better than a TV speaker.

Bring the Sound to You

Sometimes it's not the TV or the speaker to be blamed. Maybe the surrounding noise is causing the problem, or maybe turning the volume up makes the people around you uncomfortable. In that case, bring the sound to you. Hook up a pair of wireless headphones. Many new TVs are equipped with Bluetooth, so you can pair up any headphones you’d like.
