Not really, but I suppose you could argue that it does. DRC (Dynamic Range Compression) decreases the difference between the quiet parts and the loud parts of the audio track.

If you are in a quiet environment and using good sound equipment (even headphones), then you will probably appreciate the full range.

If you are in a noisy environment or using a crummy sound system (like the speaker in the Nook Color), then applying some level of DRC will help you select a volume level where you can hear everything without being overwhelmed.
