The primary reason to put the amp in an EC2 enclosure is to preserve portability of the K2/10. Since you already have a K1 and plan to get a KX3, it would seem that your field operation bases are covered. Keep it simple and put the amp inside the transceiver case to use as a base station radio. Bonus: it's still pretty portable so long as you will have power available.
