[Elecraft] K2 Sound and feel

[Lee Buller]

Given that my ears are not precision instruments (they roll of rapidly after 3500 Hz and have really bad hearing above that)...I too must agree with Don.

But, my experience has been that the K2 has a better sound that the PRO II ... by far!  I contest a lot...mostly CW (some SSB)...and I get very tired running the PRO II.  It drives me nuts after a couple of hours.  When I use the K2, this does not happen...and I don't use the 250 Hz filter.  The lowest one I have is 400.  The filter that is best is the DSP package between your ears.

I've likened the K2 to the ICOM 765 (from the 80s).  Now that rig was beautiful in audio output....easy to listen to...and I put the K2 in the category.  Again, this is all experience and not quantitative in nature.

In our day and age it seems that Common Sense is in short supply.  If you don't have any Common Sense - get some Common Sense and use it.  If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense.  Is Common Sense devine?
