When I finally noticed it, it seemed less artificial somehow. I'm not sure if I want to start referring to an artificial voice as "sultry" or "throaty" or the like, but those aren't inaccurate. It was definitely lower-pitched.'
On balance, I don't like the change because it seemed less audible to me, for whatever reason. Even after I noticed it and was listening for just how it differed, I missed it several times because of road noise. There's more road noise this week than most, but it still seemed more difficult to hear.
