The Voice has narrowed down the competition to it’s top eight performers but some viewers are struggling with a surprising issue allegedly afflicting a show that is all about singing – the sound.

Frustrated viewers of The Voice vented their frustrations over what they called persistent sound troubles on the show following Monday night’s episode.

Fans claimed they were unable to hear the contestants sing, an issue they claim plagues the show every season.

On a Reddit thread entitled ‘The production team is sleeping?’, Voice fans weighed in with their observations about the poor sound quality.

‘Maybe I need a new tv. I’m also kind of grateful because I’m not enjoying the singers, but I also can’t hear them sing. Turn up the mics,’ the original poster wrote.

Another viewer said this season had turned them off from the show completely as they grumbled about the sound troubles.

‘I’m done with the show due to this season. This has happened on many occasions where the music is way louder than the person singing. If I can hear background singers over the artist, there is an issue. Idk if it was due to the live show or what but wtf,’ the Reddit user noted.

‘Oh, but you could hear Sting changing chords on his guitar loud and clear. THAT was bad. Never heard any show mix their sound that poorly,’ another weighed in, prompting another to respond: ‘The voice is always like that. I have to max my speakers to hear. Every other show I have the volume at like 60%.’

Another observed: ‘Happens every season for some reason….’

One theorized the sound troubles were either due to the band or the quality of the performers.

‘The band is so loud OR the singers are so bad they are covering them up. Annoying that the background drowns the voices,’ they theorized.

The complaints continued over on X, where one asked: ‘#thevoice Why tf this “background” music so loud? I can’t even hear the singers.’

Another X user said the volume drowned out host Carson Daly.

‘They always have the music way too loud during the lives for whatever reason,’ another chimed in. ‘So loud I couldn’t even hear Carson taking us to commercials.’

The latest episode comes after former coach Ariana Grande revealed she has no plans to return to the show.

After previously serving as a judge and mentor on the music competition show in 2021, the Wicked actress, 31, revealed why she would be hesitant to ever return to the gig.

‘I got so emotionally attached to everyone. That’s my problem. I can’t really do that because I really get in,’ she said on the Las Culturistas podcast.

The 7 Rings hitmaker continued: ‘I really get in there with everyone. I love everyone so much. I love meeting people, and I’ve felt so invested.’
