Not attempting to hijack Randy's thread, but rather add to it:
It seems that I've been more aware of late of dialog in TV shows not being clear. I'm not being facetious, but have literally had my hearing checked recently. I've noticed it on shows like ER & Third Watch where it seems some of the talent mumbles, and I've seen it on, for instance, Joan of Arcadia where the mix of background music (especially in shots in the high school) seems as though it's mixed too hot in comparison to the dialog. I think it's a matter of letting the dialog be more "gritty"... the audio equivalent of "shaky cam". But I don't know- maybe it's me?
I've also been happy with my VP150 as I've listened in careful, controlled situations to test it. I've raised the center level a couple of db already and it's helped, but wonder if anyone else has noticed the same?
