This occurred to me when I was looking at the prototype at Pacificon
last year. It'd be somewhat non-trivial to implement, though ...
there'd either have to be some negotiation between the K3 and the
KPA500 to get the right drive level for the user-requested output, or
a lot of calibration. Perhaps the current (actual) output could be
reported from the KPA500 to the K3 via AUXBUS, and the K3 could dial
its drive level up or down to achieve the requested final output......
