I want to convert a CD to mp3 files with a good quality and a reasonable
file size. I played around with the VBR setting and found that using the
follwing switches (lame 3.60):
-h -k -lowpass 999 -b 32 -B 224 -v -V 3
results in mp3 files in stereo with a means bitrate of about 182 kbps. I
can
I use CDex including Lame 3.58, only at 320 bitrate
to get the best quality

Q-Design i-Media and Philips Power Library seem both to be highly regarded.
MP2 supports bitrates up to 384kbps, BTW.

Best quality is PCM at ~1400kb/s :) . Using 320kb/s which is only 4:1
compression, you may as well use ADPCM format which tak

I am not a Pro, but have a similar question :

to ensure quality you can use -b switch(minimum bitrate).
Something like -B320 -b160 -V3 -ms -k -h gives 180-200kbps avg with Lame3.61 and I
didn't noticed any flaws (except fatboy.wav :-/ ).
If there is silence in wav, bitrate falls to
