50% of TV Viewers Now Use Closed Captioning -- Technology Innovator ZVOX Solves Garbled Dialogue Problem with Lowest-Price-Ever $59 Soundbar
SWAMPSCOTT, Mass., Nov. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- It's no secret that enjoying entertainment on television has changed drastically since the turn of the century. While TV screens have grown bigger and the resolution sharper, sound has deteriorated. A recent study by the New York Times found that 50% of TV viewers use subtitles or closed captioning to watch TV. While flatscreen TVs have reached new heights of visual clarity, audio clarity has suffered because there's little room to fit good speakers into thin form factors. Even the most expensive TVs come with low-quality speakers that face away from viewers. Sloppy sound mixing on streaming services exacerbates the problem, condensing voices, ambient background noise, and sound effects into a monolithic confusion of noise.
