Definitely use websockets. socket.io is what you want.
You don't need another else. Something to consider: if you've going to be
playing back the recorded audio (or broadcasting it), I'd look into
compressing it even more to optimize your bandwidth usage.
I'll second the use of websockets.

The answer from Rainer Rillke is rather impressive and include FLAC and
Opus support via javascript frameworks.
I'd suggest FLAC for lossless audio and Ogg Opus for lossy, there are
also no licensing/royalty/patent issues with these codecs.
With Ogg Opus you may be able to leverage existing Opus support in the
browser.
