I've got a 3month old k3. I was impressed with how full bodied or maybe even hi fidelity some of the audio sounded but I eventually grew tired of how the background band noise sounded in my rural QTH. The best I can describe is it had a high edge to it. I eventually went to a vacant frequency and adjusted the equalizer to get the noise to sound more natural to "my" liking. That was fine but the signal audio was now kind of plain or dull or monotone, no more full rich sound. 
I've since discovered that narrowing the bandwidth to 2.4 removes a lot of noise so I'm currently trying that and have changed the equalizer to a more neutral setting. I think I'm liking that better. 
I like to use width and shift. I like to know where their at but I know a lot of 
Operators prefer hi/lo cut on ssb. I'll soon try that as well and hopefully find 
That full audio with non irritating noise.
