[Elecraft] K3: Stereo Speakers - What are you using?

[Matt Zilmer]

A man after my own heart.  I did this:  2x Micor / Syntor generation
5" 8-ohm speakers in the plastic clamshell enclosures work great for
this.  I've avoided the metal enclosures because of mechanical
resonances....

These speakers are pretty efficient, and have good freq response.
