This has been a significant problem for the powered speakers I have tried. Even the West Mountain Radio speakers that are supposed to be RF proof are not RF proof.

I'm going to try a few of the single-ic audio chips to see I can produce enough clean audio while avoiding the RF feedback problem.

Just use a pair of small amplified computer speakers

Be careful about that -- most amplified loudspeakers have RFI problems.

Remember that the KX3 is specifically designed to be a backpacking rig, so everything, including the audio amp, is designed to be stingy about using battery power.

One simple thing we can do to maximize the audio output level is to use RXEQ to roll off the lower three bands. The sound in these lower bands makes no contribution to communications, but it does use power, so when we get rid of it, we can use the power for the sound that matters.
