The page to listen to the speech samples, as well as to fill out a very 
brief survey, is available at
http://www.nvaccess.org/speech-synthesizer-survey-1/
Here is the information taken from this page.
NV Access is currently undertaking research into how to best improve the 
default voice of NVDA. Although the voice must be understandable and 
some what pleasant, the voice must also be free of charge, responsive, 
small in size, and has the ability to speak most if not all currently 
supported languages.
If you are a screen reader user, we would like to ask you to help us in 
this research, by listening to several speech samples we have created, 
and then fill in a small survey to let us know which one you find most 
comfortable.
Speech Samples
Please listen to each of the following 5 recordings, and think about 
which one is most comfortable for you to listen to. You may wish to go 
back and listen to one or more again to help you decide. Once you have 
decided, please fill in the survey located below the speech samples.
