I'm not the only one that complains about this? It's nice to know I'm in good company. It seems like I can 'hear' the sound of the dialogue on tv, but I sometimes can't 'hear' the individual words. I have the same problem on the phone. I clearly hear the sound of the person speaking to me, but sometimes can't figure out what the heck they actually said. I've started watching a lot of programs on Netflix so I can turn on the captioning. It's heck getting old.
