That's been my experience as well on the few times I get on SSB.
Completely unsolicited reports, with both a CM500 and a Heil Proset with
the iC electret mic.

I wanted to pass along to you Elecraft engineers my experience during
this event. I am a CW-only op for the most part and really never hear
signal quality reports other than the obligatory 5xx. Switching
reluctantly to SSB and swinging down that odd foam thing which usually
resides over my head I received numerous comments like: "Best signal
of the day here, very clean audio!" and "Wow! It sounds like you are
in the room here, excellent audio" and "Your signal is audible above
the pileup because it is so clear!" and a few others which really
surprised me. Who knew you could actually send your voice through a
ham radio!
I take no credit for any of this other than turning the rig on. I
heard many crappy sounding SSB signals during this event, some even
difficult to understand despite good signal strength and I appreciate
Elecraft making the K3 operate so well, I believe it was a real
advantage. I can only hope the K4 will build on this quality!
