replaygain tags and Soundcheck tags from Itunes.  They are basically
the same thing, just itunes version of replay gain but for some reason
someone at Slimdevices decided if you have both they should be added
together. Now for most files it just doubles the negative values as
most music has negative values.  You just sit and wonder why it's so
quiet.  But for the odd positive values, well you can figure it out. 
I've done a couple of bug reports but can't find them. One they didn't
understand and put it with another bug about soundcheck.  It wasn't the
same and had nothing to do with what I wrote. I tried again but for some
reason it didn't go through. I got tire of trying and just eliminated
all my soundcheck tags. Not happy about that as now I can't use volume
adjustment on my ipods but oh well. As far as I know it hasn't been
fixed as far as 7.1 So make sure you don't have both types of tags or
you do risk maybe speaker damage.  It would be rare to have a positive
10 replay gain but if you did it would be a bad surprise to have your
volume raised by 20db if you had it very loud to begin with.  :(
