I've just been reading along on this thread, and one speaker I would mention is
another RS model, albeit an oldie.  I don't have a K3, so can't tell you how it
would sound on one, but the RS MC-800 (40-1975) is the best sounding one I've
had on my radios.  The low end does very well down below 50Hz, ramping up at
about 20-25Hz, and making lots of good power over 50Hz.  I love it.  To my worn
out ears, the full range is important to me.  I can't hear high end anyway, but
can still hear when I go out past 3K on the receiver.  It sports a 7" sub-woofer
and 2" tweeter, also a port.  The speaker is rated 100-20K, but does better than
that on the low end.  Full resolution is best for these ears to decipher the
overall signal.  So-called communications receivers like Motorola or GE mobile
speakers sound terrible to me.

To each his own.  :o)
