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.
