I personally wouldn't say "difficult to comprehend". I would say that the Lyra audio is "cleaner" but that the artifacts that there are, are louder and more annoying in Lyra. There's a very bad ringing effect and some flutter. If you personally find these artifacts distracting or confusing, I could very easily see the Lyra examples being harder to understand. I'm almost certain that Lyra has increased the volume on the first sample too. It's quite audible, although I haven't confirmed this with Audacity. Through good quality headphones, I actually find the Lyra artifacts rather piercing and think I'd pretty quickly get fatigued through having it in my ears over a long conversation. Maybe they would handle this better with a bit of a lowpass filter added.
