[xxalsonxx]

I'M new user want to converter to MP3 320kbps what is best choose [joint stereo, stereo, dual channel and source channel mode].
General I'll play in car, gaming loptop and phone with stereo bluetools any idea ?

Go with the Joint Stereo as that's the default one used by the LAME MP3 encoder.

Joint stereo and stereo this 2 type any different ? Which is a best Joint stereo or stereo

[ilk2011]

Stereo encoding simply encodes the left channel and then right channel. Joint Stereo takes redundancy between them into account and instead of encoding left and right, it encodes Middle and Side. At that Middle = left channel + right channel; Side = left channel - right channel. This allows a more efficient usage of the available bits.
The difference and quality are anyway very personal things.

Because I'M new donnot which is a best in MP3 320kbps type joint stereo or stereo.
