It is not easy for me to understand the rationale of many of the hams that recommend buying an old, battered CB speaker at a flea market to shine beside their K3/P3/KPA500 line up. It is like spending on an Armani suit and wearing it with a pair of old dirty sneakers bought second-hand at a yard sale. No kidding, I have seen that too!
And all this for the sake of Elecraft, to save the company from the "shame" of having to use their talent to build a matching speaker enclosure? Somebody should have told Arthur Collins, but it is too late for that, I guess. Can you imagine somebody buying a Rolls Royce without tires only because Rolls Royce doesn't make tires? And last but not least, what is the science of designing a transceiver with so many advanced features if the output product, the sound coming out of the speaker, is mediocre at best? Why should a company hang the reputation of its product on some other manufacturer of cheap computer speakers that will not care for the excellence and expertise invested in Elecraft's flagship system? The sound coming out of the K3 is mediocre at best. It is up to Elecraft to provide a solution. If need be, I am willing to pay for it.
