Yes I included that information in my first email... ffprobe shows what 
metadata its receiving, then the actual info on the stream

Basically 64k is as high as I can get it...

Now if I use something like ffmpeg to do the transcoding instead of liquidsoap, 
using the same codec (libfdk_aac)

Ffprobe shows

Duration: N/A, bitrate: 249 kb/s
    Stream #0:0: Audio: aac (LC), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 249 kb/s
