The actual text to voice synthesis isn't acutally bad, but the audio quality is terrible. The audio artifacts are so bad I could barely listen to the demo snippets. It's too bad they ruined a quite good product by skimping on the most important quality, audio quality.

I wonder how OP missed this? Audio quality has to be flawless when using headphones for extended times. It's not like you need a lot of bits for audio, so it's not something you save on.

Please fix!

Sounds good on my speakers
Headphones.
It's fine on my phone and laptop. I think you are the one with the issue.

I would delete my comments if I were you because you look like a jerk mentioning it 3 times in a post with 8 comments total. And it's not even true.

the audio sounds good to me too even with headphones, are you sure you haven't got broken headphones?
Laurel or Yanny test?
