I tried them and wasn’t fired up, but try them, they are cheap ($7). https://www.amazon.com/Chill-Pill-Mobile-Speakers-CHI1125/dp/B001K33QSO I used a $10 amp and some simple Pyle speakers. I wrote up the whole thing on my blog. Works for me. https://observer.wunderwood.org/2017/03/04/speakers-for-my-elecraft-kx3/ I’d also check out recommendations for amplified computer speakers from The Wirecutter. https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-computer-speakers/ wunder K6WRU Walter Underwood CM87wj http://observer.wunderwood.org/ (my blog) > On Feb 22, 2018, at 7:55 AM, Winn Hall via Elecraft > <[email protected]> wrote: > > I know I've seen recommendations for small powered speakers but I can't find > them.
