I wonder how would you talk about a voice breaking in young males - around the age of puberty? This is when they lose their high-pitched voices and start to produce deeper sounds. What shall I say:

1- His voice has gotten manly.
2- He has gotten a manly voice.

I am quite confidents there should be an idiom/expression for that, while once I heard something like that; though I cannot recall.

    There is a colloquial phrase in this previous English Language & Usage question. Don't use it in polite society.
