Poor sound volume

GAC65 — Mon, 23 Jul 2018 21:11:13 GMT

Has anyone else experienced a volume problem with QVC’s main channel.? I have to turn up my volume really high to hear. Called my provider and they said it is QVC’s problem. Most annoying.

I have very acute hearing and yes, I have noticed just a slight reduction in volume.

@GAC65 - We have Direct TV and I have noticed a big difference in the volume of QVC main channel. Direct says it is QVC's issue.

QVC needs to correct this.

I have DISH and lately I have noticed I have had to turn up the volume on quite a few channels.

I do think QVC has a lower volume than QVC2 (with Optimum/Altice cable service). I seem to always have to turn it up on reg QVC. However, I do have to turn it down when Amy Strahn speaks as host because she sings her words (and hits very high and very low volumes in each sentence) making it difficult to hear her product decsriptions at a reasonable pitch.

I have DISH as well and have noticed the same thing. I’m glad to hear it isn’t just me! I was afraid either my hearing or my television was going out!

Yes, we have Optimum Cable and QVC is quite a bit lower than our other channels.

@WORKING GAL Same here. Direct TV..low volume on QVC main. Also, you have to remember that you pumped up the volume; otherwise, when you change the channel..the volume is l-o-u-d.

Not with my Comcast, one actually needs ear plugs for QVC. Even "commercials" on all channels are loud which the FCC prohibited years ago, but apparently not enforcing.

YES. But it's not consistently poor/low sound.

If I keep my audio on 30, for example, all channels come in at just about the same volume level. But every once in a while, only QVC will come in extremely low at that level. I have to raise the volume for just QVC as high as 70 on the audio scale, with still not much appreciable difference. This does not happen often, but at least once or twice a week.

I stream all my TV channels via Roku, so I don't use a cable or satellite company.
