Au Contraire in my case, Johnny. I've found the
KDSP2 to be very effective and still use my K2/100
in my secondary operating location as my QRO rig.
The issue with the KDSP2 is getting the settings
right. That was tricky and probably took me a year
or two of experimentation. But now it works very
well for me and I find the NR very effective.

I will not regret the discontinuation of KDSP2. In my case, I do not feel any
usefulness of the KDSP2,I sold it and replaced with a KAF2 at a much lower
cost. While there are a number of settings in KDSP2 which you can manipulate,
regrettably none of the settings gave me a present result. The artifacts from
the DeNoiser is huge and much worse than K3.
IMHO, among the elecraft radios, the best Noise Reduction NR is in KX3 (I did
not try the KX2). KDSP2 is in the audio stage and did not improve any
selectivity like the DSP in K3
KAF2 in the used market is really cheap. Adding the KAF2 will not cost much
but at least give you some listening comfort. With some careful choices of R
and C in KAF2 (please refer to the manual), you will find yourself a sweet spot
even for SSB.

The K2 was first prototyped in October 1997. I'll bet no one back then
would have guessed that demand for parts would still be around 19 years
later in 2016.
