I believe it all has to do with what you are used to. Unless, of course,
you have some hearing impediment. I used a dectalk for years and had
problems understanding eloquence, which my girlfriend uses, until I started
using it. Now it sounds perfectly clear to me. The double-talk used by
Bookport sounded very strange to me at first, but after using it for more
than 2 years, it even seems to have acquired voice inflection to me.
Just a thought....

Hi everyone,
Six or eight months ago there was an extensive discussion about this. I was not around for the conclusion. I remember there was a lot of disagreement and the APH staff were looking into other possibilities. Can anyone fill me in on this?
I have up until this time been mostly an Audible listener and have only
used the synthesizer for the manual, some articles and a couple of e-books.
The quality of the speech is adequate at best, but I am sure that some will
disagree with that. I find it echoey. gurglely and somewhat choppy. It is
quite understandable with some things but not with others. I have played
around with the settings but find that the defaults work best. Any
suggestions? Does anyone else feel this way? Is there any solution.
This is in contrast with Eloquence as used in JAWS which I find clear and smooth.
Richard
