Speaker tech and microphone quality are arguably worse than 40 years ago., regardless of the technology increase. The systems in airliners are cheap sound systems. Also, the pilots don’t get feedback as to what is sounds like while transmitting on the PA, so they can swallow the mic and not hear it well.
