I think a lot of it depends on what you are listening to as well as the bitrate.

I've had modern digitally recorded stuff that has been ripped at 320kpbs that still sound like total crap.

But then on the other hand I've listened to analogue recorded music recorded in the 60s/70s/80s ripped at 128kpbs that sound identical the the CD they were ripped from.

I don't think you can tell just from the bitrate.
