I'm presently using an optimus 4" XTS 40 speaker. on my gen coverage rcvr.
I feel that the sound quality is good but would like to know if i were to
use a
larger full range speaker would the fidelity/clarity of voice improve? i do
not
want to use an amplifier or equalizer.


RM,

I currently use the "Sounds Sweet" Speaker with my Kenwood R-5000.

"The 'SOUNDS SWEET' Communications speakers maximize intelligibility
from your transceiver, receiver or portable by reproducing only the
communications voice and shortwave music frequencies coming from your
SSB, AM or FM communication or shortwave radio."

The Sounds Sweet ia a 'little' "Pricey" at $99 +S&H.

Also, if you are using one of the 'portable' AM/FM Shortwave Radios.
Check-Out the Kiwa "Audio" Mods for a better sound from your radio.
[The Speaker is only as 'good' as the electronics that is driving it.]
