I have used an outboard audio filter to "clean up" square wave sidetones, like 
on my K1.
Worked well.
I remember when the modes came out to do this to the K2 sidetone.
However, listen to an old spark audio file.  After that, everything sounds 
good.  Spark sounds like what you might expect a 5KW damped arc to sound like 
in a receiver.
