    A lot of us live in apartments and choose not to be obnoxious assholes to our neighbors. Wheres the sound mix for us?

    If you have to keep changing the volume throughout the movie, the audio engineer did a bad job, period.

      Dude you can just turn on the “night” mode on whatever device you’re using and completely solve your problem. You don’t blame the sun for being too bright, you just put on sun glasses.

        Or, and I know this sounds crazy, the highly paid professionals at the top of their field can do their job properly for the majority of their consumers.

          Request the stereo stream in your streaming device’s audio options. Your tv/headphones are downmixing a surround stream, and doing a shit job of it. The “highly paid professionals” have made a separate stereo mix just for this purpose.

          And ruin the experience for those with good equipment?

          Should music be mixed in mono so quality is the same for those who listen to it on a base cellphone and those who listen to it on 1k$ speakers?
