mChoose Settings > Sound Check.

If you have not activated Sound Check in iTunes, setting it on iPod has no effect.

Using the Equalizer

You can use equalizer presets to change the sound on iPod to suit a particular music genre or style. For example, to make rock music sound better, set the equalizer to Rock.

To use the equalizer to change the sound on iPod:

mChoose Settings > EQ and choose an equalizer preset.

If you assigned an equalizer preset to a song in iTunes and the iPod equalizer is set to Off, the song plays using the iTunes setting. See iTunes Help for more information.
