BRN hates me now since I told him about 128 bit rate when he encodes. He's now at 192


What's so bad about 128? I can't really tell the difference between the two, except the difference in file size


watery sounding drums, frequency range loss, and a flatter sound. I can notice the difference between 128, 192, 256, and the cd/wav file itself.

I thought 160 was CD quality? and 192 was higher, digital quality?

I've always ripped mine at 192 and don't download anything less than 128.

160 is a noticeable dropoff at times. 192 is pretty good except with a slight dropoff above the 14khz range. 224 and up (or VBR) is about full cd quality. You won't notice as much on a lower qulaity stereo or an average car cd player though. You'll only notice on lower equipment if the mp3 has the watery drum sound.
