This PDF compares the quality of various audio compression codecs run with various parameters. Overall, of all the audio encodings attempted which produced output at the same sample rate as the input, constant bitrate MP3's produced the highest quality files, exceeded only by variable bitrate MP3's at bitrates above 224kbps. In all cases AAC produced inferior quality results.

this guy should learn about recommended lame settings and versions first. -q0, who still uses this? It was buggy until a recent version and now (3.97) it is remapped to -q2 or -q3, don't know exactly. Then someone should tell him about double blind listening tests...
Another way would be looking at hydrogenaudio.org and participating at several professional listing tests.
I'd recommend reading hydrogenaudio to some of the people here too.
