SPX to OGA Converter
Processing entirely on your device — large files may take a moment.
Speex Voice Audio and Ogg Audio-Only exist for different jobs: SPX is Speex voice audio in an Ogg container — the codec of old VoIP recorders and Asterisk phone systems. Converting OGA to MP3 sidesteps the device-support gaps of the Ogg family.
This converter runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly — your files never leave your device, nothing is uploaded, and there are no watermarks, sign-ups or queues. Drop in several files at once to convert them as a batch.

About the SPX format
SPX is Speex speech audio in an Ogg container — the open voice codec of the 2000s VoIP wave, tuned for telephone-band speech at absurdly low bitrates. Asterisk PBX call recordings and old conferencing archives are where you meet it.
Speex was formally retired in favor of Opus, and players have followed. Converting SPX to MP3 (or Opus for the adventurous) rescues call archives before they become unplayable.
+ Strengths
- ✓Extremely compact for speech
- ✓Open-source lineage
! Limitations
- −Speech-only: music is unusable
- −Format officially retired
About the OGA format
OGA is the Ogg container's audio-only extension: the same Vorbis (or Opus/FLAC) stream as an OGG file, renamed to signal "this is music, not video". Wikipedia's audio files and old game rips commonly use it.
Functionally it is an OGG — and it inherits the same hardware-support lottery. Converting OGA to MP3 ends the guessing game on phones, car stereos and anything without an Ogg decoder.
+ Strengths
- ✓Open, royalty-free Vorbis audio
- ✓Identical quality to OGG
! Limitations
- −Extension confuses players less familiar with Ogg
- −Same hardware gaps as OGG
