Quality of current aoTuv Ogg Vorbis stereo Options

[Neuron]

I've searched the forum for interesting information about Ogg Vorbis. I use it for Internet radio listening (the station I listen to uses aoTuv at -q2), but I've found many old (2002-2005) threads about the supposed stereo collapse vorbis has even at ~128 kbps? Does Vorbis still suffer from these issues or was this solved?

Thanks in advance for good answers.

I agree that 128 kbps is not a “low bitrate” by the customary usage of the term, especially in the context of streaming.

I agree that 128 kbps is not a “low bitrate” by the customary usage of the term, especially in the context of streaming.

-q2 is 96-112 kbps generally through, although I saw the bitrate go up to 128 kbps on hard to encode music. And it is aoTuv vorbis, at least Winamp stream information says that.
So does ogg have a good stereo image at 96-112 kbps?
