I find conflicting information. If it's following the original ReplayGain standard here: http://replaygain.hydrogenaudio.org/outline.html it's 83 dB. But there's a wiki on HydrogenAudio that now says 89 dB: http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Replaygain#Introduction > Replaygain is the name of a technique invented to achieve the same > playback volume of audio files. It specifies the reference level of > 89dB and an algorithm to measure the perceived loudness of audio data. Now since that's a wiki, anyone could have put anything in there. And playback of MP3s with embedded MP3Gain RG data is much louder than playback of FLACs with RG data added by the FLAC encoder itself. I know the MP3s are at 89 dB, MP3Gain is specifically set that way. But there's no such control for the FLAC encoder. So I'm confused... I'm not trying to give you a hard time Josh, I'm trying to sort through the conflicting information.
