[Elecraft] Best Sounding Sound?

[Darwin, Keith]

The best sounding rig I've ever used was the K1.  Best sounding in terms
of nice smooth CW note.

The 2nd best sounding rig I've ever used was the Drake 2B.  Great
sounding CW audio but so much else with the rig was not great that it
didn't stick around.

My 3rd best sounding rig is the K2.  It sounds better than the 830s and
TenTec Omni V it replaced.  Sounds better than the R4A that I tried to
like.  Sounded better than the Century 22.  And when you take overall RX
performance into account (including AGC action), it was a far more
useable rig than the 2B (which I *almost* regret selling) and the K1.

It "sounds" like the best-sounding transceiver or ham rig SOUND came out
of VACUUM TUBE rigs.

I notice every ham that refers back to
".... the best sounding rig I ever had
was ...." - is talking a tube rig.
