Ken is right, if, when your volume is normal, but the loudest parts are much too strong, then Dynamic Volume is for you.
you have been warned: when engaged, it's not high fidelity anymore. ;-)
if you go to a good movie theatre and watch one of the movies that offend your ears when you're home, but it does sound good in the theater, then it's an indication your room should have some treatment to make it better sonically, or your speakers could be better positioned.
the room is as important as the speakers...

maybe your room is too live and so the loud parts are overwhelming and are not very clear and clean, and they sound much too loud when they should not. it might depend on your room, even if you use Audyssey.

i don't know if it makes everything the "same" volume - having never tried it - but i know that it does compress the dynamic range of whatever program you're using it on.

Dynamic Equalization will not help you with this.

maybe you have different settings for Dynamic Volume; if so, you could start by using the softest setting and by adjusting for normal volume level for voices, and see if you like it; if not, then use a harder setting (more compression).
