    Unless you’re watching Tenet, in which case the audio sucks no matter how good your setup is.

      Seriously. Saw that in the cinema and couldn’t hear a word.

      Watch using windows 10 computer, right click on sound in task bar, go to “sounds”, click on “playback”, double click on your output, go to “enhancements” and enable “loudness equalization”

      It’s a MIRACLE. You can hear voices AND explosions don’t ruin your ears!

        I loved that for horror games, you can hear the quiet cues without getting deafened by jump scares

          “Please adjust your brightness so this shape is barely visible.”

          Nah, I’m cranking that way up. I get that there’s an art, but I’d rather not be straining my eyes and ears.

          Horror games and movies it’s PERFECT for. Music is the only time it REALLY falters. Some games are all messed up when it’s on, but for horror stuff it’s perfect.

          My podcast program I use, Overcast, has something called Voice Boost. It does the same thing and it makes podcasts listenable with my car’s crazy sound system and sub (I am not shilling, I haven’t paid for it and I should but I never buy phone programs… even though I probably should I know I suck)
