Re: best archiver? (for music)

If you're not an expert you should probably stick with one of the
--preset modes. E.g. '--preset medium' or '--preset standard'. That will
give you variable bitrate files with good quality.

lame -h -V 3 is what i use.

The speakers in telephones are tiny. That's probably a large part of it.

The codec used to digitize voice signals for current DECT phones, G.726
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G.726] dates from 1990, so it was limited
to the technology of that time. Modern codecs like speex probably do a
better job!

MUCH better. record your voice at 8kHz and then try speex. it's REALLY excellent.
