There's a loss of precision in the conversion process. Both the original
recordings show 25 bit precision and the file sizes are the same (3.8MB).
The converted file is only 16 bit and is 1.9MB. It sounds (and looks)
louder. I doubt I could tell any loss of quality. Not explaining it.
Just providing some facts. :)

Thanks again,
John.
Then sox stat shows min/max amplitude +/- 0.5 for
the wav capture and
+/- 0.9 for the wav converted from w64. The converted file looks good
in my editor too.
Still doesn't explain the difference, unless I'm missing something...
