Good bass distribution

Care to explain what "good bass distribution means and how its related to the software you play it on.... Seeing as all applications can only be as good as the audio hardware and drivers available to it, so a statement like that doesnt stand at all....

I say WMP, because i cant be arsed to change.

I like the VLC Media Player.
It loads quickly, is more skinnable than WinApm, and WMP, and plays EVERYTHING. I've never found an audio file I can't play while using it. Unless it corrupt, of course. But VLC will even play some corrupt files.
I use it in Linux, but I mainly use amaroK for audio. It's KDE's default. And I haven't bothered to change it to the default.

Im not totally sure what I mean lol :P but I get louder music in realplayer as default and the equaliser is much simpler, 3 controls:)

With the bass thing I mean, when the equalisation is set right I can get more of a boom that I can with any other player. Its kind of hard to explain:confused:

But I definetly get better bass IMO with Realplayer, on my speakers and audio setup that I get once fiddling around with WMP or Winamp:)
 
I like Creative MediaSource because it has all of my sound card features built into the interface.

I do love VLC's capabilities, but it just doesn't have a very good library or playlist setup. It is probably one of my most favored utilities though.

Mainly because it will lay just about anything you throw at it, .dat files, temp files, half downloaded clips, files with no extension. Anythign you care to load up in VLC it attempts at playing it, and it usualy suceeds. Very good application IMO

i too like VLC, it is my default media player, but I don't like it as or use it as a music player cause the playlist and media library suck, there is a project called Songbird which is going to be a clone of iTunes that uses VLC as the actual media player, but it's too buggy to use right now.
