Whispers

What is going on with the sound on qvc. Sounds like most of them are just whispering. It's quite annoying when you want to hear about the items.

Now it's whispering - after all the posts about talking being way too loud!! There is absolutely no way to please everyone!

@Pook That was my immediate thought - too loud - too soft - mute everything......you can only please half the people 1/2 the time.

They should have an ASMR show on the Q. (one on sheets, purses)

@upshatesme We have this problem with QVC, too. Turning the volume up doesn’t really help - it’s very hard to hear them. I know it isn’t our tv or my ears, because we don’t have a problem with any other channels.

It sounds to me like it might be a reception issue in certain areas and not QVC's doing because everything is normal with QVC in my area.

We use it all the time. Some shows those talking(not shopping networks) seem to mumble words and neither my wife or I understand what they said. Since we watch only DVR shows, we roll it back/turn on CC, and Whalllah!

The sound is the same on my tv. Could there be an issue with your tv, or did it get turned down accidentally.

@happycat

QVC's channels are the only ones I have this issue with, and when I switch to a different channel the volume is full blast....I think its a QVC issue...I called my cable company and everything checked out from their end and a guy came out and checked my TV and cable -- all AOKAY!

I rarely watch qvc, but never noticed whispering. Everything comes out loud and clear.

Loud and clear.

The only whispering we deal with is Paul Giamatti on Billions. Good grief, he talks like a bunny rabbit.

Intersting, @Spurt. I guess I don't have that issue. I do have an issue with other channels commercials sounding like they are louder than whatever show we are watching on TV.

QVC needs to look into that. It would get on my nerves.

I have the same problem. I have to turn the volume way up. It's the channel. And it's worse with certain hosts. Sandra for instance. And some of them talk to each other like they're having a private conversation that they don't want anyone else to hear.
