Critical Listening

[VolvoHeretic]

I tried to watch Tron last night threw our little upstairs stereo and had to turn the stereo off. I couldn't hear any dialog because the sound track was too damned loud, and the bass was rediculously overboosted. I want seperate volume knobs for the dialog and the soundtrack. I have pretty much given up on watching movies (and car racing for that matter, but for the opposite reason) because of it. The same reason I haven't stepped inside a movie theater in a decade.

Edit; This seems to be a new phenomenon, I used to watch movies threw my A7's; Star Wars, Star Trek, and Jurassic Park always impressed the kids, but nowadays...
