Can't convert raw to wav using SoX

Try as I may, I am unable to successfully use SoX to convert a raw file to a wav file.

The command line I use is: 

sox -r 44100 -b 16 -e signed-integer c -1 -t raw   000000.raw 1.wav

What I get back is static. And to even make sure I've got the input file data correct when I import it with Audacity I use the settings:

Signed 16bit PCM Big-endian 1 Channel (mono) Sample rate 44100

and the output on that works just fine.

If anyone is familiar with SoX I would appreciate any hints,

Thanks

p.s. Here is the link to the raw file

I see nothing obviously wrong with your command. Without access to the raw file it is impossible to help any further. On this site we value very highly reproducible code. – AkselA
@AkselA I've added a link to download the raw file – Daniel Kaplan

Endianness seems to be the issue.
By default it is taken to be little endian, but by including the -B flag the data is read as big endian.

sox -t raw -r 44100 -b 16 -e signed-integer -B -c 1 000000.raw test2.wav
