Well, lame gave a faithful rendering, then :)

But unless you're just listening through your laptop speakers, but 
rather through headphones, earbuds or a stereo, the default 128k at q3 
is pretty crappy.  For any music we care about, such as that streamed 
overnight from our local community radio station, we get best results 
from lame -hV2, or -hV0 for the very best .. that's variable bitrate, 
quality 2 (or 0), which gives average bitrates around ~192kbps (or 
~210k) with 256k and some 320k frames in the busier sections.

cheers, Ian

Yes, and how do I solve the problem that the .wav file is silent
already?
