I had taken those steps of connecting to power and Wi-Fi, and still Siri was stubbornly sticking with the compact voice. That is why I contacted Apple Accessibility and started the case ticket. I managed to force Siri to upgrade to the enhance quality by doing the following: One, I switched from Englishto another language temporarily. And then back again to English. Two I then did the connect the power and Wi-Fi trick and that forced Siri to download the enhanced English quality voice. For some reason it seems to of been stuck and changing languages and then back again forced the download. For the other Lister who was asking about advanced settings for Siri, it should be noted that there are no settings per se. Just the act of connecting to power and Wi-Fi Siri will then bring down the enhanced quality voice for the selected language. Sent from my IPhone
