Interesting. I think my only experience with A.D. on the fire stick has been with Amazon prime series Harry Bosch. I haven’t listen to that much audio description on either one, but it did seem to me, and this could be strictly based on whatever series I was watching, that the audio description with the Apple TV really messed with the sound. That is the stereo or whenever it was wasn’t that good. Whereas with Amazon, it seems better. It could be series dependent, or I could be crazy. Mary
