When I first started using text to speech, I found it hard to understand. Sometimes entire sentences sounded like gibberish. But the more I listened to it, the easier it became to understand, like learning to listen to an unfamiliar accent. Now, I can listen to TTS at maximum speed and still understand it. My wife can barely tolerate TTS at all, let alone full speed.

The funny thing is that over time, maximum speed doesn't sound as fast as it used to. It's just as fast as it ever was, but my brain just became trained to better understand it, so it seems as if it isn't as fast.
