I found a set of battery-powered, amplified computer speakers at
Dayton for $3/pair. They were designed to use six C cells, three in
one speaker and three in the other. I modified the main speaker to
accept a 9V battery. So, for three bucks, I got a nice speaker to use
with the KX-1 and a second, non-amplified speaker to use for another
project.

This is a good find...I have never seen it in the stores...I will
look for one.
Here are a couple more options: depending on your sense of style,
you may also like the Radio Shack 277-1008, which is a $13 mono
speaker, though decidedly Radio Shack looking. A step up (and
smallest of the 3) is the MacAlly iPod "PodWave" speaker, IP-A111,
but it needs an impedance transformer to make it work with the
KX1. I see they now have an IP-A111B in black, both for $40.
Type 277-1008 into google for pix of the $13 radio shack offering,
and see http://wa5znu.org/log/2006/06/kx1-ipod-speaker.html for the
pix of the MacAlly PodWave with my KX1.

Cruising my local Radio Shack, I happened upon their exclusive
"mini extension speaker for transceivers," stock number 19-318 at
$26, and took it chance on it working well since it is "optimized
for communications." It also is black
