Bass hits harder on radio than CD's?
My bass hits allot harder when listening to the radio than my CD's. Is this maybe the way I burn my CD's? I use i Tunes to burn my cd's... should I use windows media player instead? could that be the problem....?
thanks
thanks

RE: Bass hits harder on radio than CD's?
do u have a stock head unit
did u change both the TONE setting for both the CD and the radio
becasue the Radio TONE keeps the memory for it
and the CD TONE has its own memory also
it might also be the BIT RATE of your MP3s also

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3#Bit_rate
Bit rate
The bit rate is variable for MP3 files. The general rule is that more information is included from the original sound file when a higher bit rate is used, and thus the higher the quality during play back. In the early days of MP3 encoding, a fixed bit rate was used for the entire file.
Bit rates available in MPEG-1 Layer 3 are 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256 and 320 kibit/s, and the available sample frequencies are 32, 44.1 and 48 kHz. 44.1 kHz is almost always used (coincides with the sampling rate of compact discs), and 128 Kbit/s has become the de facto "good enough" standard, although 192 Kbit/s is becoming increasingly popular over peer-to-peer file sharing networks. MPEG-2 and [the non-official] MPEG-2.5 includes some additional bit rates: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 144, 160 Kibit/s
Variable bit rates (VBR) are also possible. Audio in MP3 files are divided into frames (which have their own bit rate) so it is possible to change the bit rate dynamically as the file is encoded (although not originally implemented, VBR is in extensive use today). This technique makes it possible to use more bits for parts of the sound with higher dynamics (more sound movement) and fewer bits for parts with lower dynamics, further increasing quality and decreasing storage space. This method compares to a sound activated tape recorder that reduces tape consumption by not recording silence. Some encoders utilize this technique to a great extent.
