[Elecraft] u want nice audio?

[Brian Alsop]

And don't be suprised that the results show that nobody can agree on a 
single speaker which sounds best.

Since tastes (and hearing abilities) vary so much,  recommendations on a 
good speaker system must be taken with a grain of salt.

Ditto on adjustment of TX audio.  You are at the mercy of the subjective 
individual(s) reporting back to you. 
I've heard so many on the air sessions where one guy is playing with his 
"audio".  
The group agreed upon result would even be rejected by the landline 
company as bad.
