I have had great luck with the small amplified speakers from Rad Shack or E-Bay. Shaped like tiny men they put out incredible audio and are rechargable by your computer USB port. I have several so I never run out. Charge is good for about 5 hours I guess. Use them with my K1 now and they are superb !!!

Most of the ones they list are 2.4 kHz "sounders" which you want to steer clear of unless that is what use like to listen too. But I did see a 22mm speaker with good bandwidth.
