Leave compression to the LOUD button on the CD player.  I really can't do 
without brick wall compression in my truck, because I can't *hear* dynamic 
range over the wind noise, the tire noise, the turbo, the thrumming 500 HP 
diesel, the air dryer...

But when I'm sitting at home spinning the same disc (well, spooling its 
contents off my hard drive) in the blissful quiet of my den, I want the 
dynamics, dammit.
