On a cable modem in the US there is no delay on your mp3's and
looking at your level of compression it seems to be just right. 3/4
meg target, mono with custom 68kbps, 22khz, with a hardhit rumble
filter works well for sample mp3's.
I see you left your safaris sound as waves but that is minor for
those short files. Just minor tweaks if you want to.

Everything on your site is fast for cable and the tweaks would not
really effect us.
