I don't have to change the volume between shows. But for a while, every action show required I down volume the noisy bits and up volume the talking bits.

I understand dynamic range is a thing and people with reasonable stereos and a place to use them should enjoy. But in an apartment with a sleeping toddler I simply want to hear it without waking my kid.

I now run: Windows Loudness Equalisation, Clear Voice on the sound bar, every show is subtitles on.
