The K1 will have a cleaner VFO than the KX1's DDS VFO. 

I have a 10 bit DDS rig (AT Sprint) - like I understand the KX1 has -
and if it is like that, it will have some spurs. They are the result of
the discrete false frequency components that a DDS outputs, and that may
mix with strong signals outside of the desired passband.

Therefore basic rx perfomance should be better in the K1.
