It does indeed!
I found it virtually indistinguishable from the CD, however it generated larger files that I needed for my plans at the time and I felt that since it's file sizes were approaching those of lossless encoding, why not go that route if one wanted even better.
So I use 256K for most stuff and lossless for especially 'good' recordings. After a year's listening I'm so pleased with it that I rarely use lossless. But the settings are very important, the recommended settings, that we are informed can't be beat, caused significant degradation to the transients.
It's eerie that you found that LAME320 sounded better than the WAV source. I've noticed very significant variations amongst software players and even different versions of the same software on my PC. You may find it interesting to do the comparisons using several different players. If they all produce the same result then I suppose the encoder caused the improvement. Computer audio certainly has added greatly to the audiophile's repertoire of tweakable things...
