Low Audio Issues During Fox Sports Broadcasts

Fox Network Sports produces its sporting events in 5.1 Surround Sound, if you have issues hearing the announcers, please use only the audio from your TV and make sure your menu setting for channel 13 audio is set for either Mono, Monoral, Stereo or MTS Stereo but not Surround Sound. A lot of sports viewers use their home stereo systems connected from the Cable box or VCR, which causes the spoken audio to sound much lower than usual.

If you use a VCR to feed your stereo system or TV, you must reset the settings menu for audio to either mono or stereo audio only.
