Use this and tweak to your heart's content:

http://tools.cisco.com/Support/VBC/do/CodecCalc1.do

generally only options are:
1. low bit rate codec, lower general voice quality
2. cRTP, higher router CPU utilization
3. increased packetization period/decreased packets per second, lost/ 
late packets impact audio stream more.  also some compatibility  
issues depending on how large you go.  Older versions of Unity did  
not support over 20msec g729. ex: CSCuk52490

I have a customer that is getting clobbered high WAN utilitization

While I recognize that at some point you just need more bandwidth are  
there any other ways to reduce the bandwidth RTP requires beyond  
codec selection and CRTP?

I vaguely remember back in the old "toll bypass" days, you could  
adjust the number of samples per packet or the sample rate and it  
could make a real difference in the bandwidth.

Any knobs like that in CallManager?
