When the argument on the sofa about the TV volume is finally a thing of the past

Many TV viewers are dissatisfied with the intelligibility of the dialogues and fluctuating volume when watching TV and streaming and would like to see an improvement. The HDSX TV Sound Optimizer ensures consistent volume and intelligible dialogues when watching TV and streaming

What did he say?" This question is often asked when watching TV together, when the actors in the film are once again difficult to understand. Numerous studies confirm that LISTENING from a distance is not always completely satisfactory, as shown, for example, by the 2020 HIM (Hearing Instruments Monitor) study, in which 86 percent of hearing-impaired subjects would like a better television experience. A 2021 survey by Kronoton also shows that it is not only as people get older that television viewers are dissatisfied with the volume and intelligibility of the sound.

For example, in the 18-54 age group, every second person has problems understanding the dialogue on television. This problem with television viewing prompted the company from northern Germany to develop the HDSX TV Sound Optimizer. The problem of fluctuating volume and incomprehensible dialogue is now a thing of the past.

"The older you get, the more your hearing deteriorates. This is a completely natural aging process that can begin as early as your thirties or forties," says Gunnar Kron, developer of the HDSX TV Sound Optimizer and managing director of Kronoton. "The problems with incomprehensible dialogues and fluctuating volume levels are not only due to declining hearing, they are also technical, for example due to the inconsistent volume of the channels being played, such as TV programs or streaming service providers. There is simply no satisfactory solution to this so far. With our patented technology, we have found a completely new technical solution to this problem."

"The older you get, the more your hearing deteriorates. This is a completely natural process of aging. The HDSX TV Sound Optimizer sets new standards for a relaxed TV sound experience. Thanks to plug & play, setting it up is child's play. The small box is simply plugged between the TV and the external speaker system and attached to the back of the TV with the Velcro fasteners provided. The patented technology makes the sound more intense with a new type of dynamic compression. It optimizes the TV sound by making the quiet parts a little louder and therefore easier to understand, while the loud parts remain as they are.
