The KX3 is designed as a Ham Band receiver as the primary
consideration. It includes filtering that is practical for Ham Band
operation.
Yes, it does provide full general coverage receive, but the design
parameters are not primarily for SWL wideband audio response. The
general coverage aspects are a nice add-on, but are not the primary
focus of the KX3.

It’s true that, in the USA, the sidebands will be 5 KHz, at the absolute
maximum, which means that I am missing at most about .8 KHz of audio at the
very most. However, in the shortwave bands (above MW BCB) there are many
broadcasters using 12 to even 15 KHz of spectrum these days. China, Cuba,
Russia, and others have all adopted a very hi-fi sounding very wide bandwidth
in the past few years.
I use the same speakers for all my listening with different radios so it’s not
likely that this is the issue.
