It was claimed to me many years ago that the 4kHz cutoff used in POTS serves women and children less well than it does adult males. I have never been aware that I have any greater problems understanding women or children on the phone than I do men, but my hearing is not great. I can't hear the difference between G.711 and G.729, for example, but some people can.
Googling "PCM adult male voice", "4kHz adult male" and similar isn't finding me anything. Was I told nonsense?
