James,

I recently installed the LPF myself. I cut the traces with my 
pocketknife. Nothing to it, just be careful.
Soldering the filter was easy,  after I cleaned up the via-holes.

About the sound: The K3 sounds great with it. I THINK it sounds better 
than before (i use a heil headset).
Proof for what it's worht: I find myself listening with the the headset  
more than before.

(BTW, besides the headset I have two reasonable cheap Trust Soundwave 
Dynamic speakers for  filling the shack with audio.)

73,
Arie PA3A
