I'm not sure what other programs to check with. And, your right, I'm beginning to be suspicious.

I'd be suspicious of Winamp then if you're saying that you're choosing
stereo rather than joint but Winamp keeps telling  you that your results are
joint.  Have you checked by looking at the properties in windows explorer or
any other programs that provide  MP3 file informaition?

The problem I'm having is that my system won't produce regular stereo.
Everything comes out in joint and variable bit rate regardless of software
settings.  It's Winamp which I'm using to tell me what my stats on a
particular file happen to be.  Any thoughts?
Thanks.

My understanding is that joint stereo is a psychoacoustic trick to try and
make lower bit rate encoded files sound better in terms of their channel
separation.  I don't believe the monoblock analogy is strictly correct.  All
the advice I have seen is to use normal stereo for decent encoded files at
bit rates of 192kbps and higher and only use the joint stereo psychoacoustic
trick on very poor files encoded at lower bit rates.

Regards.

Hi!
aha, that make sence, thanks so much for this info.
then I will set it to joint stereo for further conversions.

High George,
Joint stereo is, like you have a pare of speakers, but you have a mono block
amplifier on each one.
Regular stereo, is having those same pare of speakers hooked up to a stereo
amplifier.
The joint stereo, gives better stereo channel separation then the regular
stereo.
Hope this helps.
 John.

Hi all!
I have a question which is making me curious. when I'm converting wave to
mp3 in a convertion program or so, I can see something called joint stereo,
and I can also choose if I would like to have it in joint stereo or just
stereo.
my question is, what's the difference between joint stereo and stereo, I
can't seem to hear any difference at all there.
Regards,
Jörgen Hansson!
