This raises an interesting point.  In other venues (casual discussion, fests, on air discussions, etc), I’ve heard several times about the reputation of  “bad receive audio” on the K3… and suspect since most of the kibitzers don’t actually own a K3, that it comes from early published sources — or those repeating what they got from the rumor mill started from these early sources.   I’ve spent a whole lot of hours in front of my own K3 (fully updated serial 2091) and have yet to be “worn out” or become hearing impaired by the K3’s receive audio.  It’s actually quite good.

Perhaps it’s time to encourage an update in some of these early reports and evaluations, since material (no matter how outdated) published to the internet and which pops up in Google search seems to live on forever as gospel …
