    yeah that happens because movies are mastered for surround sound. these studios really should create professionally mastered stereo mixes for home releases since most people are gonna be using their TV's built in speakers. but usually they're too cheap to do that, so they just lazily down-mix to stereo and the levels sound like crap

      What’s funny is that most physical media often include a 2.0 audio mix. It may be something that has to be selected on Netflix if it is even an option.

      For me, I actually have an atmos capable system but I think Atmos is itself not very good and the mixing is extremely inconsistent. I’ve noticed that atmos on Netflix is especially bad even when I compare the same movie on disc
