[Elecraft] K3S audio could be its biggest selling point

The speaker amp and pre-driver for both channels reside on the main DSP
board. Even with the second RX, you would not have to replace the sub RX DSP
board.

That said, do you find the headphone audio OK, but the speaker (internal or
via rear jack) objectionable? If you think the headphone audio is sub-par,
then the DSP audio amp improvements will not help you.
