    Since the final book is coming out, I was just wondering which reader you guys prefer?

    From what I've gathered, Fry reads the British version of the book while Dale reads the American version. I've only listened to Dale (for one book) and I thought it was quite good but have heard a lot of people saying that Fry is better than Dale so just want to get some opinions before getting the audiobooks.

    Thanks in advance for any input.

    I prefer Jim Dale, but that might be because I'm from sweden and more used to hear american english.

    Jim Dale all the way. Stephen Fry's voice over of Voldemort sounds too high pitch to me.

    Jim Dale, but it would make sense that I'd prefer the American take on it...

    i prefer reading them myself but i did start downloading the audios and chose fry's. i think its because i already knew his voice and i follow the british version.
