K3/RemoteRig - external speaker

[KE8G]

Hi all,
I am curious what external speakers folks are using with the K3/RemoteRig combination.  Currently, I am using a set of Radiosport headphones, but ther are times I would like to monitor things with having to sit in front of the radio.

So, what are folks using for this purpose?

Jim, any set of powered computer speakers works just fine. Since there
is no RF transmitted, there is no issue with this on the control side.

I know this is not what you asked, however, it may be of interest to you
or someone else reading it.

IF you are using modern hearing aids, there are now blue-tooth links
available for shoving your stereo or TV directly to your hearing aids. I
use mine every morning when I get up to link the shack to me while I fix
breakfast.  It is very useful.  The same link can be used for cell phone
linking (all without wires), etc.  If you happen to be hearing impaired,
you may want to look into it.  I go through three perpendicular walls to
get to the kitchen from the shack, at a distance of about 50 feet.  A
fourth wall is at a very shallow angle to the path, and also gone
through.  I can go about 25 feet further than the kitchen, as long as I
wear the pendant on the side of my body that faces the shack.
