I still use the TR-4 for SSB and also have the R4B. Using the same antenna the Drakes pull in the same weak signals as my K2 except the K2 eliminates the QRN/QRM quite a bit better. As far as sound quality, using the Drake MS-4 cabinet with the original Drake speaker and comparing it to the K2 standard in-cabinet speaker, the Drakes are a joy to listen to. I'm sure that with a better speaker system the K2 would improve. I may sell the K2 someday if I were to get the K3 but the Drake gear is priceless! 73, Jim/k2hn
