--> for the 56K KFlex, HS, v.90, v.92; there's WAV files
    of the connect sounds (including commentary) at:

    http://808hi.com/56k/index.htm

    but if you're looking for the info behind the connect
    sounds, for lower speed modem connections; then I am
    unaware of any sources for such. Having listened to
    modem connects since 300 baud - I'm quite familliar
    with the sound of `good' connects for 2400 and 56K
    and recognize the initial, negotiating and final
    handshake and have often used this on bad lines to
    judge whether I should hang-up and dial-in again
    or not - but this is still a layman's p.o.v.
