At first I thought it might just be me, but online and in person, I’m hearing more and more people talk or joke about how crazy loud movie theater speakers are getting. Lots of people (including myself) are resorting to wearing ear plugs just to watch a movie without getting ear pain. Meanwhile, I almost never see anyone complaining about *not* being able to hear a movie in the theater.
Is there a secret wave of people who can’t hear theater speakers that I’m just missing? Or is something else going on?

I wear ear plugs to movies and concerts because everything is getting super loud. I recommend that everyone tries to protect their hearing! My personal theory is that the folks most likely to do the sound checks are also the most likely to have hearing loss due to the sheer number of sound checks they conduct (amongst other things).
