most likely not why u hear distortion or seein lotta clippin'......whenever u convert to mp3 with such minute headroom like the one ur talkin about, u are gonna have the waveforms exceed the actual peak sample values and will create the inter-sample peak phenomenon....just lower your peak at -1db ...if ur still hearing distortion then maybe it's something to do with dithering but i doubt it.....
