I know the list owner has chided against "me too" comments, but ZV has
it summed up nicely and I fully agree with his comments and findings.
$500 for just 2db?

Analogy:
If you drive a car w/o air conditioning, and the mfgr let you add a
"turbo speed" fan for "extra cooling," does not mean that you NEED (as
opposed to want) a turbo fan option in a car that HAS air
conditioning.  The final level of enhanced cooling from the "turbo
fan" non-AC car still won't come close to the car with real A.C. and
no "turbo fan."

Back to radio:
With the K3, you just don't need u-tune units cuz the K3 is already
heads and shoulders better than the 2000D even with all that other
u-tune "stuff."  Beside, for $500, you can get another REAL receiver
(KRX3) instead of u-tune to help a less-than-spectacular rx (2000D).
