The speaker amplifier and driver stages that were redesigned are on the DSP
board, not the KIO3B.
The KIO3B does have new audio circuitry, namely a CODEC and support circuitry
for merging line-level audio with control data for use by the new USB port. But
this has nothing to do with the

We've made several changes to improve audio over years, and a K3S

All of the improvements I mentioned benefit the headphone jacks, *except* the
AF amp redesign, which affects only the internal and external speakers.
The headphone amplifier has always had extremely low distortion.

These algorithms were corrected a couple of years ago and are already part of
the K3/K3S firmware load.

I was wondering if and when a full-on review of the K3S would be forthcoming.

Operators disagree about K3/K3S audio. To me it sounds great, others
dislike it. The best way to settle the question for your own, personal
ears, is to find someone nearby who will let you use his/her K3S for a
few hours.

I've had my K3 just over 5 years--received in October 2010--and I've

We've made several changes to improve audio over years, and a K3S incorporates

at 12 kHz)

I'm not sure what they did, buy my new K3s sounds better to me than my original
K3 (27xx S/N), as well as being better than the previous audio winner, my
IC-7600.
