Ours was a simple question of powering off, disconnecting the mains, waiting a minute and then powering up again. Yours may be different so see if it is the manual or on the web. Cheers Dave |

30 Apr 14 - 02:53 AM (#3623027) Subject: RE: BS: TV sound problem From: GUEST,Eliza We now have to retune our set every single time we turn it on. It takes forever. I've no idea why. Reminds me of 'warming up the valves' on the old radio my parents had. One of the problems with sound quality is the fashion of playing music continually during any programme. Even erudite documentaries have to have 'backing music' (scary, or sad piano tinkling etc) as if we're incapable of manufacturing our own emotional response to what's going forward on the screen. The result is that normal speech is muffled and indistinct. (I hasten to add, although I'm falling to pieces in almost every way, my hearing/eyesight/teeth seem to be in perfect order!) |

01 May 14 - 03:13 AM (#3623345) Subject: RE: BS: TV sound problem From: GUEST,Eliza As my husband prefers his laptop to the TV and plugs himself in to listen to African music, I often turn the TV sound off and half-heartedly watch the nice pictures. Much less stressful. And I can read at the same time. As far as I'm concerned, you can take your TV and stuff........ahem! |

01 May 14 - 02:15 PM (#3623439) Subject: RE: BS: TV sound problem From: GUEST,Derek Dogger Do you also find controlling the unpredicable dynamic range of quiet sounds versus random sudden outbursts of the very loud, can also be quite problematic when trying to surreptitiously watch porn while the wife has just gone upstairs to bed ? |
