Hi Walt,
My guess is that the BP you're using now hasn't been updated to firmware v2.0.
When that firmware came out, there was a substantial difference in the voice,
mainly concerning frequency. Does this BP have a frequency option in the
settings, and if so, have you played around with it? This might help, at least
somewhat. I had the opposite reaction, I liked the original speech a lot, and
wish it hadn't changed, but I've gotten used to it as long as I remember to
crank up the frequency a point or three.

Maybe one of the APH technical folks can comment on this one. I'm
temporarily using another BP unit that seems to be considerably older than
mine and I swear that there's a significant difference in the speech,
despite its having the same firmware on it. Over the life of the BP, have
there been changes in the Doubletalk voice synthesis? I'm finding the
temporary unit much harder to understand--especially on glottal sounds--than
the one I'm used to.
