cichlidfort Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 As the question clearly states, why are iPods louder then CDs? At least in my Jeep, there is a huge difference between a song on an iPod vs. the same song on a CD.

rusty959 Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 How is the ipod hooked up? cds can be burnt at different sound levels, just like some parts of the song is quieter than others. probably just a setting somewhere.

cichlidfort Posted June 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Damn wtf! I wish my cd's got louder. What kind of ipods do you guys have? My ipod nano doesn't get loud at all but my sister's touch rapes my cd and nano. How do you burn your cd at different settings to get it louder?

raytard Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 when a song is recorded, it has a certain gain setting. albums like pink floyd's the wall are something like 13-17db quiter than say metallica's one. when a song is compressed to mp3, its overall gain is usually increased due to the compression process. programs like itunes will automatically reset the gains to an appropriate level when importing them(you'll see it call it "adjusting volume" or something), but files out there can vary a whole lot (something like 26db from loudest to quietest from what I've read on compression) Quote Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
