I'm a huge, huge NeoSpeech fan, myself. If I could get Kate, James, Ashley, and Bridget on my iPhone as system-wide voices, I'd die a very happy woman lol.
For now, though, I use compact Samantha. I can't stand her HQ version. She says things all weird. she has weird up/down inflections in her voice between words and within words. A ton of the Acapela voices have this issue, too. It's why I can't stand Heather. The Ivona voices have this issue too, somewhat. But probably my biggest issue with them is that they're so flatbe it's why Sally drives me nuts. She's pleasant enough to listen to, if you can get over how incredibly bored she sounds. The other voices I use are conpact Karen (the same issues I have with HQ Samantha I also have with HQ Karen) and the HQ version of the old female British English Siri voice. Funnily enough, I actually prefer her HQ version. Speaking of HQ old Siri voices, has Apple fixed the issue of not being able to use these voices in other apps, like Voice Dream Reader and the Blindfold games? I'd really love to use the HQ version of the old British English Siri voice in these apps, but I can't. Either she doesn't show up, or when selected, doesn't work, and the LQ version is used instead.
