The K3 MON for voice can be set to have minimum delay, in which case you
hear unprocessed audio.
Or, it can be set to hear the effects of EQ, CMP etc., but with some
delay. The delay bothers some people.
The selection is a menu-settable option.
However, when you adjust MIC settings, the radio will revert to MON
being the signal as it will be heard going out over the air (with delay)
even if you have it set for "fast" MON. This is to enable you to
properly adjust for the tx EQ, CMP and etc that best suits your voice
and your goal (good fidelity for Rag Chewing, maximum "talk power" for
DX pile-up busting, etc.).
If your audio sounds bad when you adjust CMP, Tx Gate, Mic GAIN, etc.,
then you should probably consider adjusting things so that they sound
like what you would like to hear at the other end of the QSO :-)
Check the manual and firmware release notes for more details.

On my K3 #7482, when I adjust audio settings (comp, mic gain, TX gate) the
monitor audio in the headphones becomes loud and distorted.
Exiting back to the normal display or un-keying and keying immediately clears
the issue.
Don't find it a big issue - just interested if it's normal?
