I sold my SDR1k due to the spur issues. I loved the radio, mostly. The panadaptor I really miss. My Icoms scope is nowhere as flexible and slick. I don't have any issues with BDR, IMD as I live in the country with no competition. If the bands ever open back up and I get some real activity I may see minor issues. I have not owned a K2 but have found virtually no one who doesn't like it that owns one or has owned one. Hardly ever see one for sale. I was going to buy a 5000. Then the K3 came out. (Almost). Now I am watching and waiting. If the specs and performance is as good as it seems, and a panadaptor becomes available that rivals the Flex, I'll the buy a K3. If not I'll be leaning toward a 5000. I would prefer to see the pana, if one comes out, feed into the audio card in my pc after the appropriate mixing etc. I do not want a standalone DMU ala Ft2000.... A waste of time and money. It would be ok for contesters I guess. But for my application the pc based pana would be preferred. That way I could window the sweep. The future looks bright for both companies. And the ham community.
