I shouldn't have to invest hundreds of dollars into a whole separate sound system just because the sound designers of a movie can't properly balance to audio for stereo sound, the single most common audio set up in the entire world.

It would be nice if TVs came with a proper sound system, but since they don't, you should factor audio into the cost of your home entertainment system. That's like going to a restaurant and ordering food without a drink.

Oh I'm not even just talking about TVs. I'm talking about headphones too. I've had perfectly good headphones of decent quality that have experienced this issue with movies in particular. Everything else is fine. Games, videos, music all sound great, but some movies are just balanced so poorly. It's a shared computer space so it's not really the place for one person to have a whole sound system just to watch poorly balanced movies.
