    Default To the British posters here, which American accent sounds more appealing?

    In order of most pleasant to least: #5, #2, #4, #3, #1 (I unironically missed about half of the conversation in this one, hence why I'm ranking it last).

    There is only one true English accent everything else is a poor representative of the English accent. It is known as the Queen's English or received pronunciation :
