[Elecraft] External speakers for K3?

[Bruce McLaughlin]

Gosh, I have nothing very fancy.  I have been quite pleased with a speaker I
bought from RadioShack for about $20.  It is slightly less than 1 foot high
and perhaps 8 inches wide.  It carries the brand name RCA on it.  It's
probably made somewhere in China.  However, it does sound pretty good.  On
CW, I tend to use earphones as I like the closer coupling you can get.  I'm
sure there are many more "hi-fi" options available but honestly this speaker
I have appears to reproduce most of the audio spectrum coming from the K-3.

Dear Bill,

In my own "humble-opinion" the BEST ext. spkr for the K3 is one made by
"SOUNDS SWEET" (Google 
it!)
It may be a TAD larger than some would want by their rig BUT I assure you
that the resulting audio
to the "Human hard-drive" will be very sweet indeed!!!  As I recall the
retail price is now 
$109USD
but well worth the investment!!!!!! Though it is a tad larger than most and
heavier it's resulting
audio output is FANTASTIC!!!
