the trick with Pop is......

no takers? im telling you, it fixes the problem, every noise is audible. it puts all sounds in their correct space. changing my ipod to 'pop' made a world of difference. ive been listening to pop constantly since i did it. it made it sound like u2 was accompanied by ambient techno sounds rather than ambient techno sounds accompanied by u2.

har har har, 'all that' is great and grace is one of the best songs theyve made. but youd need a good component set to appreciate it. some of you dont know what youre missing, adam is incredible on that song. and the lyrics are good too. fuck all you naysayers cuz you dont mean a thing. anyway,
pop on 'pop' makes them sound more u2. the only fixing it needed was an equalizer adjustment.

The "pop" setting usually boosts the mids and cuts the high and low end. It sounds like AM radio.

I love you.I put Pop on some muthafuckin bass boosters. Along with basically everything else I listen to... but Pop is all about the rhythm section.
oh, and turn it up loud, captain. the louder Pop is the better it is.

PLEASE tell me this isn't yet another 'if you get it you'll like it' thread, or only a few people can appreciate its genius, like only a few people can see the Emperor's new clothes 
Please understand, some people simply do not like the music, and never will 
Some of you will never like ATYCLB and I do but I am not going to spend the next 8 years trying to shove it down your throat or tell you there's something wrong with you or you need to try it again, or whatever. You like what you like and you don't like what you don't like, oh well!

I agree. It's not about "getting" Pop. It's not like Pop is some complicated calculus problem. It's very simple: you either realize it's the fucking greatest album ever made or you don't
but yeah, I don't think changing your equalizer settings is going to drastically change your opinion on ANY album. and I love addyclub.
i don't see how it is, and is it really that hard to ignore a thread? i swear, any album thread from pop to htdaab is always so predictable, even if they were started with the purest of intentions.RocknRollKitty said:PLEASE tell me this isn't yet another 'if you get it you'll like it' thread, or only a few people can appreciate its genius, like only a few people can see the Emperor's new clothes

excuse me but uh...... what the fuck are you talking about? all i said was pop sounds better on that eq setting and i found it kind of funny. pop gets played more than any other cd in my collection, theres no hate for it here. all im saying is, again, pop isnt quite as noisy when its on 'pop'. i dont know, maybe ipod's idea of the eq setting 'pop' isnt what everyone elses is. like i said before, all of the noises are there but the soul of the song comes through better and the extra shit is a compliment rather than the main show.
or dont do it, i dont give a fuck.

Holy Shit, the dude's right! I tried POP! on Pop and it made a difference. Let's just give the dude a round of applause for being such a staunch POP! fan.

I think you lose too much bass sound on a setting like that.

"Discotheque," "Staring At the Sun," and "Gone" turned into the Best-Of versions, and during the rest of it, Larry Mullen came out of my speakers and started shouting at me about how he didn't want to tour.
