I never understood why the speakers in drive-throughs are so shitty. It is like the low resolution CCTV camera recordings released by police that are close to useless for identifying perpetrators. What is the point? This is 2021, DSP technology is a commodity on the orders of a few cents to a few dollars per chip. There is absolutely no reason for an intercom to sound so bad, ditto for CCTVs. A commercial grade surveillance/intercom system that cost 3-4 figures should at the very least perform better than consumer tech like Amazon Ring.
