### DO NOT REMOVE OR SKIP THE ISSUE TEMPLATE

- [X] I understand that I will be **blocked** if I *intentionally* remove or skip any mandatory\* field

### Checklist

- [X] I'm reporting a bug unrelated to a specific site
- [X] I've verified that I have **updated yt-dlp to nightly or master** ([update instructions](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp#update-channels))
- [X] I've checked that all provided URLs are playable in a browser with the same IP and same login details
- [X] I've checked that all URLs and arguments with special characters are [properly quoted or escaped](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/wiki/FAQ#video-url-contains-an-ampersand--and-im-getting-some-strange-output-1-2839-or-v-is-not-recognized-as-an-internal-or-external-command)
- [X] I've searched [known issues](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/3766) and the [bugtracker](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues?q=) for similar issues **including closed ones**. DO NOT post duplicates
- [X] I've read the [guidelines for opening an issue](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#opening-an-issue)

### Provide a description that is worded well enough to be understood

old quality controls are skipped and some proffesional downloads are way too noisy as they might be on the fly being amplified due too high speed downloads

### Provide verbose output that clearly demonstrates the problem

- [X] Run **your** yt-dlp command with **-vU** flag added (`yt-dlp -vU <your command line>`)
- [X] If using API, add `'verbose': True` to `YoutubeDL` params instead
- [X] Copy the WHOLE output (starting with `[debug] Command-line config`) and insert it below

### Complete Verbose Output

Using `--audio-format mp3` alongside `--extract-audio` instructs yt-dlp to convert the audio track to mp3. This is lossy. To get the files as streamed by the site don't pass `--audio-format`.
Do note that nearly all sites don't offer uncompressed audio, so the files downloaded will have the same compression artifacts as present when playing in a web browser.
@seproDev howto get only the audio from the container then (i am a developer and not using lot' s of commands from yt-dlp and only want the best quality audio track available from the container.
Now without --audio-format its 8.6 GB download instead of 200 MB

For YouTube specifically there usually exist both a opus and aac audio format. yt-dlp preferrs opus due to being a newer codec.
You can download the opus audio format with
```
yt-dlp -x "URL"
```
If you instead want the aac format use
```
yt-dlp -x -S acodec:aac "URL"
```

`-x` is short for `--extract-audio`
