unless you're watching at home with the volume down.
Is this not the most common scenario, though?
Super high dynamic range is great in a cinema but terrible if you're watching at home and want to hear the dialogue but also not wake the neighbourhood when it flicks to an action scene.
My upstair neighbour stopped banging on the floor when I started using reclock's dynamic audio compressor in MPC-HC.
It sometimes end up slightly unnatural, but it beats having to constantly change the volume throughout a movie - something I didn't do too well anyway, evidently.
I still prefer the media to have better dynamics and have control over how much compression I want to apply.
