Adding Audio Equalizing To Your iPad
I listen to a lot of music and have thousands of CDs on my iPod and now my Apple iPad too. On the iPod - and on my PC - I can get to the "equalizer" and adjust the audio profile for small speakers, jazz, etc. On the IPad it doesn't seem like that's available any more.
