I tested the sample with other codecs aswell. It seems that even ogg, mpc and aac struggle with this sample on standard settings.

Metallic noises at the start, just like the LAME encodings. Please note that "q7" on the filename is a typo it should've been "q5".

Maybe q5 was abit too low for vorbis, anyway the metallic noise is present on this encode aswell, but it does sound different from other codecs. Just wondering if this could be a killer sample.
