I enjoy the flexibility of the K3 audio system. I use the AFX stereo setup in non-stereo mode.
Setup K3 for 2 speakers, place an MS4 or equivalent on top of a floor mounted Sounds Sweet speaker. The MS4 handles the sharp CW notes, the Sounds Sweet provides rich audio on phone modes, and it's all automatic with no external audio amplification. A little Rx-Eq is icing on the cake. I used to need to use amplified computer speakers to get a similar effect, it was never as good and always hard to keep RF out of the speaker wires. Highly recommended and imo -far- exceeds the audio coming from the K3/PCSDR setup.

The same thing happens if you have two speakers in a room with hard walls and no draperies. It is not distortion, it is combining signals that are no longer in phase due to the intentionally introduced delay. 73, Lyle KK7P _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
