On my K3, I've been using Midland Communication speakers.  These speakers are like the Motorola speakers N0SS recommends.  I have two so I can use the AFX feature of the radio.

I tried many speakers over the last several months.  Various computer speakers in all different types of variations.  I do like the communication speakers the best.  I know they were designed to be mobile speakers, but they have a very full sound with them.  The Midland speakrs are 4 ohm speakers and I found that the K3 seemed lot happier with 4 ohm speakers rather than 8 ohm speakers

Speaker technology is complex and very interesting.  You can read a lot about speakers and enclosures on the internet.  The science is interesting and very understandable from a non-engineering perspective.

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 divine?
