I keep virtual surround on and it sounds good. Ideally, you should get a sound bar for this tv.

Get one of those DVD's specifically meant to adjust the settings on your tv so you can determine what the best settings are

Yes. That type of preset is available, but you can also adjust bass and treble independently. There's also balance, auto volume, virtual surround, and Clear Voice II (which I haven't used, but apparently it tries to boost vocal frequencies to make dialogue louder). You can also disable the TV speakers, which I didn't realize until I looked just now.Same sort of thing for the picture settings. There are presets but you can adjust backlight, contrast, brightness, sharpness, color, tint, color temperature, etc. And that's before getting into the "advanced" picture settings. There's also a pretty good calibration wizard if you don't like the defaults but aren't sure where to start with adjustments. Yes.

I just bought this monitor and wanted audio too. What do I have to do to get audio?

you can adjust it on the menu based on what you need, 120,240, 480, and1000 frame per s. the faster you got the lower resolution of film you had. i usually use 120 and 240 frame per second to capture running. and it s pretty

change settings in xbox 360 to display 1080i. though 720p is probably better.

The audio is better than the last flat screen I owned and no longer need external speakers, I do not hear well. Hope this helped.

The speakers are inevitably tiny. You could either get a surround sound that is optic fibre capable, or adjust your sound to "good enough". Let me give you a run down of how audio works on the tv. Treble is your high notes, bass is your low notes, and mids is more highs for this certain tv. There is an option for bass boost, you will want that. One of the things I'm glad i did(i live alone) is buy a wireless headset. Razer, or turtle beach makes a very...very nice set. They are 100$+ because its a 7.1 surround wrapped around your head. So if you watch tv alone, its worth getting. Other than that, with the adjustments i explained to you, have at it. If you need anymore assistance let me know! :)

Just set mine up. I do have a home theater system, so it isn't an issue with me. But I am also not impressed with the sound from the tv. You certainly should be able to hear it over other noise, even though it could be louder.

Ubuntu 10.10 set it to 1080p with no problem. I did not try the speakers since I have other speakers.

It was agift for my dad,so Idon't have it in front of me. But I'll do what Ican for you. Go to the settings on the menu. Look for audio settings or speaker settings. There is a menu for speaker levels. Adjust levels too your liking. Usual settings are 0 for left and right fronts. 0 for center and 0 for both surround. I set it at +2 for center and +2 or 3 for surround speakers.Play with your remote. Don't be afraid to explore the menus or settings. The only way to learn is by trail and error. It took me about an hour to adjust all the settings to my liking. I'll play a blu-ray section over and over until I get it where I like it. That's part of the fun of it.

Hi Dswitzerinc, The graphic EQ settings are the options where in you can select various sound modes depending on the content that you're watching. Thanks. &gt;joffrey

Go to Audio/sound..Uncheck dolby digital and use normal audio. This WILL solve your problem, but you must do it for every movie you watch. I got a refund for this problem, but got to keep the blue ray. Small price for a good product :))

Im watching it :D just adjust your resoulution a bit, since this one has problems a bit with 1920x1080 at 60 hz resolutions.

The best thing to do is to Buy one of those hd tuning dvds. I did that and it looked better than when i screwed with the settings. My tv looks great and I no longer mess with the settings.

Sound is pretty good. To me, it seems normal...not as good as having external speakers (which I do on my other TV), but it's adequate.

Juliee, there are MANY picture and audio factors that you can adjust to achieve your own most personally satisfying viewing experience--I'd estimate a total of well over two dozen (without going into the menu to actually count). I was fully satisfied with the range of options. --Winston
