Default Few questions about my ml system

First off I dont know if its just me, but my volume varies when I switch from the radio to a cd. Is this normal? Lets say im listening to the radio at a certain volume and when I switch over to a cd it sounds a lot louder. Is it because of quality of the sound source?

Second of all is there a way to make the system any louder? Its a pretty decent sounding system, but there are times where I have it maxed out and its not to the point where you have to turn it down or your ears will ring ..I just want it a little bit louder so that I dont have to max it out.

And lastly, if I dynamat my entire drunk will it help with the bass and overall sound considering we have the stock 10 in back? Or is it a better choice to switch out the stock sub to something else?

thanks in advance

1) Quality of sound source.

2) Press the audio button on the right side of the paneling towards the passenger side. You can gain access to the audio equalizer.

3) Don't know.

My equalizer is set up where I want it to be, but its still not enough for me. Like when I listen to the radio the bass is up two marks from the middle, but when I put a cd on it has to go two marks lower than the center if I want to go full volume. Treble is set to full and my mid is I believe two marks below center. It gets pretty good at full volume with a cd on, I was just wondering if it can get any louder.
