I've done it before and I'm sure I know how to do it, but I'm being thick...
what? you want to magic up the information thats been lost by compressing it to 160kbps? why do you want it at a higher quality?
?
You can only degrade file quality. Technically, you can save the file to a higher bitrate, but the quality will stay the same.
if you convert it to a .wav, and then recompress it you'll surely lose more data?
suddenly be at whatever rate you want, but it wont achieve anything
unless you have the source and re rip it i.e cd Re-encoding it just makes it worse
i'll re-rip it from the cd.
DERRR
You said you wanted to improve the quality of an mp3 cds dont have mp3s on them
just change your encoding settings
its a recording of my band i need to send to someone - i have the master CD.
I just said it wrong in the title, and slightly misunderstood how it works!
Don't discriminate against me for being an idiot.
Bring back cassettes!
to make it rip it at a higher quality. if you're using itunes for example, you go to preferences.
um

possibly worse?
it'll get worse, surely?

Not possible
its possible to make a file thats at 160

you cant

change the rip settings on whatever you are ripping from.
