Default Best external speaker for SSB phone?

No doubt there are 1000+ opinions on this, but what are some really clear external speakers for use
with SSB phone signals through my Yaesu FT-897? I'm 61 years old with high frequency hearing
impairment due to 40 years of sitting by computers, and I need all the help I can get in
understanding voice over static.

I have seen several enthusiastic recommendations for the Peavey Impulse II mini monitor which is
fairly small and costs about $100. Does anyone have any experience with it?

Icom and Yaesu both make multi-hundred dollar external speakers that have gotten mixed reviews.


I would recommend one of the Motorola mobile external speakers from the
90's such as a Spectra or Syntor speaker.
