Closed captioning is your friend. I don’t want to read a movie.

I for one cannot watch the movie and read the closed captions at the same time!
Something to do with the stoke!!

Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

I have the bluetooth for the tv also but it picks up every little thing and makes it actually worse. Maybe I just haven't figured it out as good as it could be.
I suspect that your audiologist could tune your hearing aids and make that issue go away. I was really surprised what a good one can do. drover

Well am I the only one that has trouble hearing the words while watching a show nowadays. It seems to me that they play the background music so loud that I can’t hardly make out the words. I’m always asking my interpreter what they said which seems to agitate my interpreter and I’m not sure why😉 I don't watch much TV and very few movies but I figured out that lots of actors think mumbling and talking quieter than the other actors is great acting.

These things work well and can really enhance your enjoyment of movies. We've had one for a couple of years and I wouldn't be without it. It seems like the quality of dialog audio has gone totally to schidt ever since they came up with Dolby sound in movies...maybe even before that. The movies of the 60s were never a problem for me to understand the dialog, but these days it's mostly unintelligible. I don't understand why the sound people do such an awful job, but they sure do suck. Ordered one of these and just received it. I will let you know if it works for us. Thanks for the suggestion.

My wife keeps asking me to get a hearing test and to consider hearing aids. Haha, she has no idea I can hear everything she says. Works for me!
Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.

I think it was something about ear ring
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

It seems to be the trend.....can barely speak, the emotion is so high, can only croak out the words...

I find that not being able to hear well is becoming a blessing or maybe a mixed one. Hearing the anger directed at you because you can't hear well sure is worse than not being able to hear. Even with all the snarky sh*T said on the 24 campfire I can hear everyone everytime..
