Agreed the source material probably makes quite a difference. I'd imagine there's music that would be transparent at ~100 kbps while other might require ~160.
As previously stated I do believe the AxelF sample is in the harder-to-encode region for MP3 encoders so I'm pretty sure my concentrated listening threshold for average music is somewhere around 130-140 kbps or so.
Actually I really don't think it is. The material I mentioned will probably be much harder on it. And especially non-digitally recorded or mastered material, ie things with what would normally be considered 'noise'. Remember the 80s pop synth sound you have in that is right where things like MP3s were developed aiming at, mainstream pop music, and right in the right timeframe as well for mp3. This is why my live recording of acoustic pop makes it so obvious on the v6 setting, as it has these components, not a large amount, but some.
