Good quality transmit audio, be it from outboard processing gear or other needn't consume excessive bandwidth, though some does. Nor does it need to be excessive in any of its characteristics.
I appreciate quality receive audio beyond that of simply 'communications quality.' I routinely run my K3 filters on receive at 2.4 and 2.4 kHz and roll off the high end to avoid sound that I don't care to hear. There are occasions where I open it up to 2.8 or 3.0 kHz when signal to noise ratios are high and the audio I am listening to justifies it. Usually those cases are few. I don't pretend to know all the issues in the receive chain of audio, but I do think improved audio can be found for not a lot of cost in terms of design and components. It seems the dressed down style of Silicon Valley is now near ubiquitous.
