Why on earth they put crap speakers into expensive equipment beats me.
It's probably a space thing realspeed.
Flat screen telly's are the same.
The sound on our telly is abbismal! I've been considering getting a 'Sound Bar'.....Anybody had any experience of them?

Even my laptop sounds good with the headphones on....
But Mrs Fox wouldn't be able to hear the telly if I used headphones on that....

Yes, there's a sound bar just down the road, singing and dancing at all hours, hardly anybody wearing masks!

Don't buy it!

I bought a Yamaha sound bar (YAS - 10 ) a few years ago.
I'm no audiophile but it does the job. It's probably archaic by today's standards but a vast improvement on the tinny little rear facing speakers on my idiot box.

The difference is that the speakers in headphones are immediately next to your ears. They don't need to be big.

Think about your ear drums. They are a tiny fraction of the size of large bass speakers and subwoofers, yet can pick up the deepest sounds (or you wouldn't hear them).

Nope it'll all go down the drain!
River pond at the bottom of The Gorge is flooding the road. Luckily I'm on a hill.

Possibly the blandest person on the planet, never has an opinion, never said anything controversial..I have experienced more excitement reading the instruction on a 2.5 Litre tin of Dulux Matt Beige paint
