For my dad, who is 91, and suffers with poor hearing. For context, he can hear a conversation at slightly elevated volume sitting four metres away, which is about the same distance away as his telly.
He has a fairly low end telly and turns the volume up quite high to hear it, which the results in distorted sound, including the speech of his films, so he resorts to subtitles.
I have a Denton sound base and have told him I’ll bring it down to try on his telly to see if the volume can get high and clear enough. Then it struck me that a surround system with rear speakers next to him, directing the “talking parts” might be a better solution, albeit not as neat.
Anyone had similar experiences or set up systems to suit? Any ideas?
