[Elecraft] Request

[Darwin, Keith]

Uh, actually, I don't think that is the best.  Feeding the rigs through
a stereo amp to stereo speakers will certainly give you more frequency
response and may smooth the midrange some, but it will also give you
much more high freq noise and low freq rumble.  It may make signals
harder to copy (although they'll sound nice when they're strong).
 
Of course, who am I to talk.  I use hi-fi headphones all the time.
 
Even with hi-fi speakers / headphones, the quality & character of the
receive audio varies widely amongst ham rigs.  Some sound harsh - spiky
- jumpy - and just plain loud no matter what the volume setting.  Some
sound sweet & smooth.  Using great speakers or headphones will let you
hear the differences but they won't make the harsh sound go away.

For receiving, I feed all radio's into a 100 watt amplifier and then to
two good book case speakers mounted on the wall and pointed at me.
That's the best.
