I’m well aware of that predicament myself.
It’s especially noticeable when listening to Jeremy vine on radio2.
You set the volume to make the regional dialects discernible, and then they blast out ABBA or fleetwood Mac at Motörhead style volumes. So you turn down the volume, and then there’s another regional dialect, so you have to turn up the volume again, etc, etc.
A lot of the problem is due to the ‘loudness wars’, as each artist aims to make their song grab your attention in terms of sheer volume.
But it becomes annoying in no short order.
So the way around this is to use a ‘compressor’ in the signal path to reign in some of the spikes in volume.
Until the media producers include a compressor and/ or other effects like ‘reverb’ in their apps, it’s up to us to go out and purchase something like this..

You’ll have to plug it in between your tv output and your speakers.
Each column of knobs controls each separate input (tv, radio, blu-ray player, games console), so you can tailor the sound to your liking.
The next question is what kind of desk do you sit it on…
