[Elecraft] Newbie Question K2 CW Operation

I'm thinking of ordering a K2 but I have some questions that I 
cant find answered in the downloaded manual.  

1. The lowest cw pitch note is 400hz (which I think most prefer) but 
the info I read in the manual states its best to use a pitch note 
between 500 to 600hz for best results.   Does anyone have an idea 
why that is the case?  

2. The manual states that the cw bandwidth can be selected from 200 
to 2000 Hz.   If you were receiving a solid S9 signal, when you tune 
through the signal is it possible to hear the other side of zero 
beat at any filter bandwidth?  

3. If the DSP option is added does the audio DSP filter track the CW 
bandwidth selection.  Or do you need to select them separately?

I would appreciate any comments or input.    Frank W7is
