I have had my K2/100 with KDSP2 for 4 months now and almost never use the
DSP. The stock filters in the K2 seem to work just as good, and often
better, than the DSP filters but that is very much a matter of taste I
think. I operate only cw and my comments apply only to cw mode.
I like the DSP 'de-noiser' but I live in a pretty quiet environment and
rarely think to use it. In a noisier environment it might be worth the cost
of the DSP2 all by itself.
As you can see this is a very incomplete response to your question. The
answer depends a lot on your preferred modes and environment and I will be
watching to see what others say. The bottom line for me, though, is that
both the DSP or KAF2 are minor enhancements to an excellent receiver.

Hopefully, I'm about two and a half weeks from
ordering a K2 with about four accessory kits. My
question today is how much difference is there in
performance between the KDSP2 and the KAF2? Is the
KDSP2 worth the extra $140? I'm been using an
IC-746pro for about a year and a half so I am familiar
with the use of a DSP.
Comments and thoughts would be appreciated.
