The instructions are: # Enter the sound settings for your TV and find the equaliser. # Drop the 300Hz channel (which Samsung TVs have, second from left), and raise the adjacent levels. # Save as a custom set-up (if you can). Eric Smit, the assistant manager at Samsung Store in Canal Walk, did a spot test and found that it worked on both low-end and high-end TVs.

I like the idea of sitting your laptop near the TV speakers and using phase cancellation to reduce the noise of the vuvuzelas.

Just think, by the 90th minute that's 1800 fewer Vuvuzelas. Title: Re: Tune out the vuvuzela Post by: Geo the Sarge on June 16, 2010, 12:24:23 PM Is there a frequency that Andy Townsend and Edgar Davids specifically use? ;applause; ;applause;Geo |
