Was just wondering if this is in my head or did they actually improve the sound quality when using an auxiliary cord with a I pod in the car with anjunabeats vol. 9?
thanks

CD vs MP3 in car Sound Quality

Does anybody know if they improved the sound quality when using a auxiliary cord MP3 format for anjunabeats vol 9? I know that the cd compact is better for vol. 1-8. But after comparing the difference between MP3 vs compact disk is the same for volume 9. All the other volumes though compact disk sounds way better, but volume 9 sounds the same when using an auxiliary cord.

The sound quality is printed on to the finished article, there can not be an improvement using a cable. The quality all depends on sample rate, bit depth and general quality of the encoder. Chances are the mp3 versions of the previous volumes are a lower sample rate (128kb/s is still common) whereas CD's are 320kb/s, so probably just using higher quality mp3's

Obviously you bought the CD versions, but how did you get the MP3 versions?
Sounds to me like you downloaded the MP3 versions of 1-8 (fine in principle I suppose, you paid for the CD) or ripped them from the CD using software.
This is fine (morally), so no need to hide anything, as I say, you bought the CDs, it just sounds like you used bad settings when ripping the CDs or downloaded low bit-rate MP3 versions.

Thanks. and to clarify, I bought the cds and then downloaded them onto itunes and then put the tracks on my I pod and when using an auxiliary cord to the ipod in my car is what I’m talking about. It’s with both deep 3 and beats 9 that it seems to sounds better this way rather than the cd in the car does.

you can rip cds in wav format too and play them from your ipod 
a good auxiliary cord like the ones manufactured by THX with gold plated jacks could produce better sound and less noise than cheaper ones
