    My parents own a sidebar (not an amazing one but better than TV speakers) and I can’t even convince them to use the thing. It’s like keeping one extra device plugged in is too much effort and they’re convinced they don’t need it, despite the same volume complaints.

    I wish people would understand basic physics which show that there’s only some much you can do with tiny speakers, but it doesn’t seem to get through.

        Precisely. I think it’s also because they are trying to be quieter at night but better speakers will be more intelligible at lower volumes anyway. They are starting to use headphones more at least so that might be the alternate approach to reasonable sound.
