There is no "better sound" once you've achieved transparency. Below that? Yes, Vorbis can be superior to LAME/MP3. Above? Nope.

Saying differences past 190kbs are beneath human hearing is just so very wrong. Such differences are able to be heard. Not everyone can hear them, but they are audible.

Nobody that I've ever known to make that claim has ever been able to demonstrate it under controlled testing conditions except in specific cases of specific sources (and sometimes specific encoder settings) generating specific, recognizable artifacts. If you know of an exception then I'd love to be pointed at scientifically verified references.
