Best Sony TVs for dialogue clarity

#1

Spoken voices remain understandable at ordinary volumes and often sound impressively crisp, even where bass and soundstage have shortcomings.

#2

Voices are consistently easy to follow, even with busy film soundtracks, and Sony offers useful speech-enhancement options.

#3

Voices remain intelligible through action sequences and at moderate TV volumes. This is a more consistent strength than music weight or bass impact.

#4

Voices are clear, full and closely anchored to the on-screen action, with Voice Zoom adding extra intelligibility when backgrounds get busy.

#5

Speech is usually crisp and easy to follow, and Sony’s dialogue tools can help further. Some tests found male voices a little thick or the overall tonal balance less natural...

#6

Dialogue is consistently clear and well positioned on screen, even with busy soundtracks. Some voices can sound a little harder than on Sony’s OLED models.

#7

Voices are intelligible through the internal speakers. There is no sophisticated room-correction system to compensate for the acoustics of a particular space.
