"lacking in high frequency response necessary for articulation"? I totally disagree with that statement,it has more highs than enough,in fact it covers the whole spectrum from 100 to 4000hz on the K3,I can make it sound as high as a HC5 or even the HC4,in regards to the "lows" simply cut them down with the TX EQ,in fact you can make it sound ANY WAY you want it to sound.
