Mp3 Bitrates

Monday, 28th July, 2003 :: 14:08 - Tech

Back in the day of the Pentium II and crappy computers speakers the bitrates didn’t matter so much, 128 was considered more than adequate. These days though, with the advent of actual speaker making companies supplying the speakers and many people having their computers hooked to true stereo systems, the 128 bitrate just doesn’t cut it. 192 is where it’s at folks… the quality difference is easy noticed. I don’t notice much difference any higher than that though on my Klipsch THX speakers or the Pinnacle ones (the ones that rattle the entire house on low volume, hahaha).
