Marking the brand’s 30th anniversary, DTS released its Tuning In To Sensational Entertainment Trends report uncovering consumers’ preferences and habits around their entertainment experiences, at home and on the go. The survey, done in partnership with Opinium, showcases that sound quality is very to somewhat important to 85% of respondents when watching shows or movies on TV.
Sound and sensing are the unsung hero of the entertainment experience, but when people don’t have clear sound quality it can lead to negative viewing and listening experiences. More than half (58%) of respondents have differing sound needs compared to other people with whom they’re viewing shows and movies, leading to issues like listening on a lower/higher volume than ideal (33%), watching content separately (19%) and even having arguments about sound level (17%).
