For the desk microphone, I prefer the Audio-Technica MB 3K for the same reason.
To each his own, hi. I put in the 6 KHz filter also. I don't run ESSB, just
like the sound in the Hi Fi speakers

After trying several microphones I decided to take the plunge and bought
the Heil PR-40. What a difference does it make after proper equalization
with the built in K3 equalizer!. Some people answer my CQ's just to ask
what my audio setup is. They like the "broadcast quality" of the audio. I
know many hams prefer the "standard" SSB audio sound and many even say that
the narrow filter bandwidth severely limits the usability of the PR-40. But
I still remember the rationale for the 20-20000 response of the high
fidelity equipment even though most people cannot hear beyond the usual 10
Khz frequencies. The explanation was that there is a special feeling when
you hear quality sound that is not experimented when listening to
"telephone quality" sound. I know what they meant. Remember the difference
between vinyl records and CDs? You might too. Just borrow one and do the
testing. Adjust your equalizer in a wide "V" from 50 hertz to 3200 Hz. You
will never go back to the telephone sound!

I use a 50 year old Shure 444D, I did make an adapter from the K3 to the
1/4 phono plug on the Shure.
Yes, this is one of the great communications mics. When it was developed,
many years ago, there were some serious hams at Shure.
As Don noted, virtually any dynamic mic, balanced or unbalanced, and any
unbalanced electret mic will work just fine with the K3 or KX3. All it
takes is the right connector with the right wiring, and the K3 and KX3
connector pinout is shown in the manual.
