The 1986 World Cup will forever be remembered as the first time the ‘Mexican Wave’ was seen on an international stage. A well orchestrated Mexican Wave is quite a wonderful visual spectacle. However the 2010 World Cup will be remembered for one thing – vuvuzelas! They have received a mixed reaction with some people liking them, whilst others proclaim them to be a menace with the potential to permanently damage your hearing.

Hopefully LG’s Clear Voice feature will help ease the suffering, by changing the settings you could potentially quieten the sound of the vuvuzelas. Clear Voice was designed to enhance and amplify the human voice element in programming with lots of irritating background noise.

Rob McCaffrey, leading anchor for the Premier League on Showtime said, “The Vuvuzelas are so loud, that viewers are not able to hear live commentary clearly and are missing out on enjoying the usual World Cup noise that comes in the form of crowd cheers and national anthems.”

If you own an LG TV simply turn on the Clear Voice function, then arrange voice levels under the Clear Voice menu by increasing the ‘speaker’s volume and decreasing the ‘background’ sound to the minimum setting.

The Clear Voice function is available on all LG Plasma, LCD, LED models and 3D Full LED television sets, and hopefully will quell the noise and give your ears a break for the remainder of the World Cup.

LG televisions will bring a perfect 2010 World Cup experience to your home with excellent images and the best sound technology on the market.
