Important is that once there's "road noise" (combustion engine noise, wind noise, tyre running noise), frequencies of sane less compressed music became inaudible, respectively if you increase the volume, then some frequencies are to loud. The car hifi, while driving the car, makes clear if and how much more compression and/or EQing is needed. The road noise is the most extreme kind of ambient sound, were listening to music is possible. If you find a mix that fits to a studio environment and to the car hifi, while driving the car, than you are save that the mix is ok for any situation. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
