SoundCheck takes the file it is given and adjusts playback volume accordingly. If that file has already been doctored with a volume adjustment program, SoundCheck should take the file as it is and work with its actual volume.
Unfortunately, SoundCheck does not actually work, so this discussion is largely theoretical. Most people get better results from a 3rd party volume normalization program such as iVolume or MP3Gain. Feel free to experiment and use what works for you.
FYI, you may wish to consult this document: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2425
And on my Ipod, with Sound Check enabled, some of the louder songs start out loud, and then the volume decreases for about ten seconds and stays at that level. Is that the Sound Check activating on the Ipod?
That is iTunes's idea of volume normalization. See above.
