|Hi,
|
|the bandwith is approx double compared to G.711, since it uses 16bit
|(signed) integers, whereas G.711 uses 8bit integers.
|
|The human ear has approximately a logarithmic sensivity, and
|G.711 has a logarithmic resolution. Thus the quality gain of 
|slinear compared to G.711 may not be very much.

Might be good for faxing though
