If you are playing the music in a regular MP3 player, you can try ripping the CD for a new MP3 copy, adjust the volume in the setting for the rip you want, make sure it have louder sound.
Or if you are playing this in the PC, WinAMP can add a sound booster to increase the volume.

We really need more information, but... if you've been creating mp3's from analog sources (like radio, cassette, records), maybe you haven't set the recording gain correctly. The program you use to record should have a level meter (like on a cassette deck); you want to keep the peaks under the red. If the level is too high some of the sound will be clipped which will cause distortion. If you've selected a recording level that is too low (which it sounds like you've been doing), you can use a function called "normalize" in your audio editing software to adjust the level automatically to just below maxium. Then encode the files using a good-quality encoder like WinLAME, with the "extreme" preset.

You can try converting to MP3 at a higher bit rate. However I belive it's just the nature of MP3. It doesn't sound that good at all. After djing with them next to vinyl and cd, the lack luster quality of MP3 is glaringly obvious.

What program do you use for recording? In Cool Edit, sometimes you can double-click your little speaker icon down to the right on your screen, select options-properties-recording and that will show your inputs.

Try audacity software for audio editing. I hadn't used it for a while, but i guess it's still free.
