Sounds like RF getting into the audio amps of the speakers.  May require ferrite beads with a couple of turns thorough the beads on the audio and power cables.

I connected a cheap set of powered pc speakers to the KX3 but I hear distortion through the powered speakers when transmitting with the KX3 and KPA-100 connected to a KPA-500. Has anyone found a high quality powered speaker to connect to the KX3 that doesn’t distort when transmitting?
