thats is what i meant Gomzy! I meant T series is loud when i said Gajni,Yuvraaj etc is lounder in the same volume as compared to any Sony Music release. We both actually agree! :)
Infact i have tested the same track Say a track from Ada released in Big music and the same track in Universal music - Connections compilation album. There is a different in volume levels.

Its sony that is relatively low when compared. Try all the other companies and its the audio of Sony that is low. Maybe the dolby processing (NR) does that, i am not sure.
