Noise cancelling headphones or earbuds might work - they'll minimise background sounds and distortion, so you can hear more clearly at lower volumes.

Even then, the mixing on a lot of shows is deliberately bad so that explosions/gunfights are louder than dialogue (I blame Christopher Nolan). Mostly for newer shows, so Farscape might be okay.

Ugh, I hate that. It's like everything has constant deep, industrial white noise too.

Nolan is totally to blame for that.
