You own a PlayStation Portal, and you love it. You play games on the couch, on the toilet, on your porch. But if you want to get in some late-night gaming, you may find that even the lowest volume setting is too much for your sleeping significant other.

I've tried all these audio options and I deliver my verdict in the embedded video. Watch along to get a sense of which one could be best for you.
