3. Is 128kbps bitrate good?
4. Can you hear the difference between 256 kbps and 320 kbps?

Is 320kbps good sound quality?

The more kilobits per second the greater the quality of the sound. For most general listening 320kbps is ideal. Of course, CD-quality audio that stretches to 1,411kbps will sound better. To determine the best audio bitrate you need to also assess your needs.

Is 192 audio bitrate good?

160 / 192 kbps is acceptable for most people, with only a very small difference in perceived quality over higher bitrates. It should be considered a minimum quality bitrate for decent audio listening. It's a good compromise for mobile connections where bandwidth might be limited.

Is 128kbps bitrate good?

For MP3s, most people find that 128 Kbps is a good compromise of file size and sound quality. At that rate, MP3 files take up roughly one megabyte of space per minute of music. The 128 Kbps rate is considered high quality for the AAC format, which is why iTunes comes factory set to 128 Kbps.

Can you hear the difference between 256 kbps and 320 kbps?

If you play in high resolution system than difference is audible but in a standard audio system or portable audio device difference between 256 and 320 is very difficult to detect........
