K3 Speakers

[Phil LaMarche-2]

For over 6 years I have used book case speakers mounted on the wall, pointed
at me.  They go through an amplifier and to the K3.  No RFI and wonderful
quality that is non tiring for many hours of phone use.  I also have the
West Mountain Radio COMSpkr's that are cheap and very nice but no comparison
to the above.  Everyone who comes over comments on the quality of the
speaker system.  For CW, I use head phones.

Phil,

I agree with you - whatever speakers are used they should have
reasonable fidelity.
Yes, communications quality is all that is needed IMHO for the audio,
but also IMHO, the speakers are *not* the place to achieve that - good
full range speakers should faithfully reproduce whatever comes out of
the K3 (or any other radio).  I find many of the "communications"
speakers sound 'tinny and rattly' to my ears.
