SAT radio's freq. spread isn't as good as a CDs, AFAIK. I researched this same topic a long while back and found out that the SAT radio companies use different compression and freq. spectrum for different channels. You may be hearing the increased bass they might put in to make the rock channels sound "better".   As far as the CDs go, are u talking about songs burned to CD (MP3, etc) or factory-original CDs?  Oh and to make the bass blend more smoothly, try checking/messing with your crossover points (try subs xover point first).
