Opinion Please: What Makes a Good Chazan/Cantor?

$

We've just finished the two Jewish Holidays which demand the most time in a synagogue listening to and singing along with a chazan/cantor.

Here in Shiloh, all of our "cantors" are volunteers. They are mostly neighbors and don't get paid. Personally, I don't miss the professional chazanim, who sometimes perform more than doven.  Listening to those lovely voices is fun on a rare occasion, but since I like to sing along, our amateurs suit me better. But I'd like to know your opinion, thanks.
