they mix audio for cinemas with 5.1 or 7.1 speaker systems. And then they take that version and smoosh it into stereo :) which then comes out sounding absolutely terrible because the mix was simply not made for stereo

Half the movies Ive seen in the last decade in cinemas still suffered from insanely bad audio balancing.

This problem goes beyond just lazy distribution.

I think the issue is with volume levelling; your statement implies the issue is channel separation. Listening in surround sound won’t mitigate the issue, unless you intentionally boost the center speaker

I mean, cinemas are also built to blow your eardrums out. As someone with hearing loss I avoid them.
