Yes, well most of those are good sounding and......are larger than our radios on our desks today. Small speakers can be expected to produce small sound. Small as in acoustic output and limited frequency response. Just laws of Physics. Don't expect to modify those laws.

The K3 can sound really good if one uses external speakers on the
K3/K3S. If you do not have high quality (Hi-Fi) speakers that you can use with the K3/K3S, then the matching SP3 speakers are an excellent choice. I was fortunate enough to pick up a pair of Radio Shack Minimus speakers at a 2nd hand store for $5.00 each - they do very well in my shack. The speakers that will produce all the audio nuances that are possible are those with a wide range response, so Hi-Fi speakers qualify for that aspect. Others with a restricted audio range such as those with DSP will limit the full range audio available from the K3/K3S. In other words, the audio response of the radio should be clearly reproduced by the speakers. The response by the small internal speaker is necessarily limited, but good wide range external speaker will deliver the sound that the radio is capable of. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/4/2018 5:46 PM, Bob McGraw K4TAX wrote: > Yes, well most of those are good sounding and......are larger than our radios on our desks today.

I second that. I have (had) a half dozen of these (one seems to have gone
missing) to use on my K3 and K3S. That said, I seldom use anything but headphones, unless a visitor is in the shack.
