does your IPOD sound as good as a CD on your bike?

"You know, I've read through this thread and the thought at least to me is, I like to get away from all of the bs and sound when I'm on two wheels. I know to each his own but all I like is the sound of my motor and the wind when I am on two wheels."
Agreed........... Sunday poker run, ride up into the mountains, rarely every touch the radio. Four days haulin butt up the superslab, tunes are a nice destraction.

I put 6.5" speakers in my fairing (HK head unit, no external amp) and the volume of my nano can drown out my True-Dual V&H Classics at highway speed. That being said, the CD is a little louder, but the nano alone is plenty. If your nano is not loud enough, try using a short (12" or 18" cord), maxing out the volume and turning off the volume-limiter that lets parents set the loudest volume on their kid's iPods.
As for fidelity, well, you're on a friggin' motorcycle flying at 80 mph in traffic on the highway for cryin' out loud, not in a concert hall. Anyone who can tell the difference between an MP3, AAC, AIFF or lossless tune on a motorcycle ought to try starting the motorcycle first.

I can only imagine how long it would take to kull through all the songs, edit the volume level, do a test ride and then do any other edits needed to the volume. For less than $1, I'll burn mp3 disks and have control of my tunes. I don't need to skip alot of songs at one time because they are all songs I like. With the mp3 cd I can shuffle, repeat, or run down the list, all with what comes in the factory HK. I love the tunes and the only time I'm not listening to it is during the 1st few minutes of the day. Ya know, check for all of the normal rattles and ticks, and then jam out.
