We have a Sony surround sound Blu Ray player. Some Blu Rays and DVDs are very difficult to listen to, even worse if featuring American actors. There are at least two problems with the sound. The first is that the voices get submerged in the background and it's difficult to make out what actors are saying. The second and possibly third is that the bass, reinforced by the sub woofer, is overpowering. The dynamic range is also such that on some discs the loud bits just make the whole experience in a domestic environment a dreadul one. One solution is to give up on the surround sound altogether and use the TV audio.
There may be settings for the Blu Ray player which will make discs bearable, but I've not found them yet. Films which I've tried to watch which have been really difficult include the War of the Worlds (the recent one) and Walk the Line about Johnny Cash.
Has any one else found this to be a problem, and perhaps more helpfully stiil, has anyone found remedies? Might be a case for RTFM for the player, though I thought I'd figured out most of the options.
