Why Turning Up Volume Doesn't Fix Muffled Speech: The 90/10 Acoustic Paradox & 4-Step EQ Fix

This article explains why some voices sound muffled despite high volume, revealing the 90/10 acoustic energy paradox where vowels carry loudness but consonants carry meaning, how cochlear upward masking buries consonants, and provides a practical 4-step EQ filter chain plus TTS voice selection criteria for crystal-clear speech.
