    What actually changes

    OPUS and WAV are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    The Opus stream is decoded to PCM at 48 kHz and written as WAV. No further loss occurs after this point.

    Worth knowing first

    Opus decodes at 48 kHz regardless of what the original recording used, so a 16 kHz voice note comes out as a 48 kHz file containing 16 kHz worth of information. Downsampling it afterwards for a speech model is safe and makes the file three times smaller.

    Questions

    OPUS to WAV, answered

    Why is the WAV so large compared with the Opus?

    Opus at 24 kbps against uncompressed PCM at over 700 kbps. A factor of thirty is normal.

    Is any detail recovered?

    No. Decoding never restores what the encoder discarded.
