Are you asking about RX audio, TX audio or both?  SSB, AM, FM, or (for
RX) CW?

For CW, I find the K3 to be the 3rd best audio I've ever had.  The Drake
2B and K1 both had smoother sweeter sounding CW tones but their AGC left
a lot to be desired.  The K2 was 3rd in line with good sounding CW and
good AGC.  I place the K3 just a bit behind the K2 in terms of raw
smooth CW tone but the rig takes top position when you factor in the
rest of the things that matter in a CW receiver.

SSB - I haven't a clue.  I haven't even hooked a mic up to the rig.

I'm considering he purchase of a K3 to replace my 756 Pro III.  I have
wonderful audio with the Icom and would like some comments on the K3
audio and microphone recommendations for the best audio w/o external
help. I'm going to get it pretty well loaded.
