Hard to tell looking at that pic. Better use Spek which is a free app. See pic related:
#1 is the original - mp3 vbr v0
#2 is a transcode of #1 - mp3 cbr 192kbps
#3 is a transcode of #1 - mp3 cbr 128kbps
Most transcodes have problems after 16kHz. Because the mp3 encoders are so much better than before, it's pretty hard to tell the difference all the time if you don't have the original WAV/FLAC.

If you adjust the spectrogram settings properly you can see the background noise cutting in and out on an mp3.

I stopped worrying about it after some time. I probably have a bunch of transcodes in my collection
