Yeah, this *has* to be a mis-communications somewhere. I use the Proset
with the iC2 electret element from Elecraft. I regularly get
unsolicited "really great audio" comments in contests, I'll likely get
several in the IARU this weakend if I decide to try out phone. I have a
nondescript, almost non-noticeable voice [latter based on the number of
times my wife interrupts me with a totally different subject :-)] so I
know it's not me, I do NOT sound like Walter Cronkite.
Most non-carbon mics are pretty flat over the nominal 2.8 KHz
communications bandwidth, I really don't think you need a mic to match
your voice. The K3's TX EQ can make a world of difference however, and
apparently does for me. I have the SSB adapter in my K2 but I've never
connected a mic to it.

I was a bit shocked, or at least surprised, at what K4TAX was saying.
I think he might mean the quality of the audio plus speaker system of
the default K3, not TX audio. Or, at least hopefully he means that.
I know others have complained about the level of audio volume or
whatever in listening to a K3’s built in speaker.
