Thanks for the advice regarding audio. I know it is not pefect yet. I used audacity, normalizing with -2,0 dB, cutting below 80 Hz, little cut (1,5 dB) below 300 Hz, slight boost (+1,5 dB) from 2-6 kHz and compression. In the next videos, I will register at lower volume.

(Variable Speed of Light Cosmology)Unzickers Real Physics2022-08-17 | Variable speed of light offers an intriguing explanation of the cosmological redshift: no material expansion, just light spreads. As a consequence, the beginning of the universe is better understood as an horizon of one elementary particle (Big Flash). Contrarily to conventional cosmology, the value of the nuclear density becomes meaningful.
