Try your local drugstore in the MP3 accessory section.
You'll probably find an external speaker with a stereo plug on it, like
this one:

They're $5 or so and run on one AA.

I would try a small amplified speaker, perhaps like the one radio shack
sells or similar.  The audio output from the KX-1 is a little puny in my
view.  I also often use a headphone amplifier, similar to the "Boostaroo",
to beef up the output.  The KX-1 works fair without that, but on weaker
signals, it can get a little difficult to hear.

Here is the one I use:

If you are using external paddles, the KX1 will sit on that little shelf just like the iPod does.    Have fun!
