I can actually abx 192 kbps LAME and .FLAC. Barely. With select recordings. Based on that, I would say that anything higher than that is indeed transparent, and 192 kbps LAME is practically transparent.
Since I don't do portable audio, I only listen to .flac at the moment. If I had a DAP, I would certainly fill it with high quality lossy compression, just for capacity and battery life reasons.
