I have an Arc Ultra. Era 300’s and Sub Gen 2. Since upgrading to the ultra from Arc I have noticed that TV commercials are much lower in volume than the show I’m watching. When watching Football, the referee mics are also very low. I did an A/B test using TV speakers and my Sonos system and with the TV speakers the volume is as I would expect. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks.

Volume difference between TV show and commercials

A common complaint, whether using in-built tv speakers or soundbars. There’s no standard broadcast level for programs, movies, adverts… Complain to your broadcast regulators, but don’t blame tv or external speaker manufacturers.

Yeah, me too. It wasn’t an issue with the older Arc. It seems to happen more with off air local commercials and football broadcasts. When I stream using Apple TV I don’t notice it. So it might just be garbage in garbage out when using the antenna. lol.
