I think I know what you are talking about.  Some audio clips sound
sorta muffled, requiring you to turn the volume up way too loud in
order to hear them.  You might look into a program called 'normalize'.
It operates on wav files, but you could re-encode them with bladeenc
(for example) after adjusting the volume.  Of coures, sox will do the
same thing except that normalize takes multiple files and equalizes
their volumes so that they all sound about the same.  Pretty handy for
burning CDs, etc.

Of course, if you just want to listen to the mp3's on your computer,
that's a bit of trouble.  I was looking at the mpg123 manpage, and
noticed that the -g options says that it sets the "audio hardware
output gain."  I would guess that this means it adjusts your soundcard
gain, and if it is already maxed out, it won't change anything.  If
the -f option works, I'd say it is the correct one.

That's what she said.
