Anyone else think the music is too loud in Amok time?

    Hah, not saying whether Thowra wears hearing aids or not but I've heard church organists say when they get complaints that they're playing their organs too loud, a lot of times it's from older folks who wear hearing aids.

    It's certainly bombastic, but it's also one of the most distinctive (if not the definitive) TOS scores. I love it.

    I suppose it’s because both the scripting and acting is so good that I want to be able to concentrate on it!

    If you have a Bose speaker system, change the Audio Compression setting to "Smart Volume". That reduces the range of volume levels in a movie soundtrack so differences between loud and soft sounds are less noticeable. Other speaker systems might have a similar setting.
