My experience is that one difference between Dale & Fry is the pitch
of their voices.  Dale strikes me as more in the tenor range, and Fry as
closer to the bass range.  (I'm not a trained musician, here.  This is just a
general impression.)

Another reason I tried listening to Fry is that I thought Dale made
Hermione whine during his reading of PS/SS.  Hermione didn't seem like the
whining type to me, so I took a listen to Fry to hear his take on Hermione. 
Other differences I noticed were much smaller, such as the pronounciation
of Spinnet."  Fry accents the second syllable, and Dale accents the
first syllable.

I'm thankful we can choose between such riches!
