What about an option "adjust-level-for-psycho-model", which increases the
level for the threshold computation, so low level music is coded with more
bits. To my mind low level pieces of music with a turned up volume control
are coded with too less bits. lame is coding for a full scale SPL of about
90 dB and that's too less if you are listening at >100 dB full scale SPL.

Options like '-b128' don't solve this problem. For medium level music there
are still too less bits. Only the low level parts get enough bits, may be
also too less.
