Mixing acapellas, & Acapella bitrate

So Obviously if you have a song thats 192 kbps it isnt going to sound as good as one at 320 kbps. My question is can you hear the difference between a 192 acapella and a 320 acapella? If i mixed a 192 acapella on a big system into a 320 song would anyone even be able to notice? Would the lesser quality be able to be heard in an acapella?

Voices aren't as affected by mp3 encoding because the frequency range they operate in is narrower than a song using low bass and hi-hats, and hence more information can be taken out without affecting the few important frequencies.

So, to answer your question: the difference between 320kpbs and 192kbps acapella isn't going to be glaringly obvious; at least not as obvious as it would be for music, anyway.
