watching movie at home advice
when watching action films the action is always super load and the dialog super quiet, always finding myself turning the volume up and down accordingly, ive tried loads of different settings with little improvement, anyone got advice?

Not much you can do, it's how they mix the movies these days. Nolan is especially bad at it.
People have been turning on subtitiles, pretty awful solution.

@mariner4life I watched Venom last night, agree, good simple fun.
Some great conversations between Eddie & Venom too

I have a similar question.
How can I get my family to go to bed early, so I can watch the shows I like, alone, with the sound really loud, without them waking up and complaining?

I might go again too……
Really interesting comparing it to this. Give it a hoon if you have time.
There’s aspects of the 1980s version that did it better ( certainly not the SFX ! )
Virginia Madsen was HOOOOOOTTTTTTTT

@voodoo Those are Sennheiser RS 175 RF.
Never tried headphones with the TV. Bluetooth?
Keys in the name RF, rather then Bluetooth. Bluetooth does not have a good enough bandwidth for decent audio without clever compression algorithms. So you plug your analog or digital audio out into the box, it transmits it to the headset.

can they pair to more than one headset? There's often two of us wanting to watch films when kids are in bed - if the audio is great, coudl well be tempted as long as we can do more than one headset

I'm picturing you guys sitting there watching some great action movie together, headphones on, turned up loud, oblivious to one of your kids screaming for you from the bedroom after a nightmare...

they are old enough to be self-ambulatory. But yes, one did sneak down once a few years ago when we were watching, sit off the end of the sofa and watch with us. Got caught when he let out an loud, long and impressive flatulent noise. Busted!

It seems you can have 2 headphones connected with this model.
