Just got a new 6300 and so far so good! I do need to buy a pair of computer
monitor speakers. Any suggestions? I'm always concerned about RF getting
into them and have not been all together happy with the WestMountain radio
pair that I have.

The monitor speakers from Bose work great (From Target). However you
must use isolation transformers to de couple the RF. Clamp on chokes
are not enough.
(Companion® 2 Series III multimedia speaker system ) about 99.00 from
target.

Agree, Bose Companion II speakers work well -- excellent audio. I have no
RF issues. Also available via Amazon. Proper station grounding is
essential to minimize rf issues.

I have, use, and like the Bose spkrs too and the only RF issue with them
is my cell phone gets into them when it swaps bits with the tower every
so often when I'm not talking on that phone. This is within just a few
feet phone to spkrs.

Use what you wish, but I have done very well with inexpensive computer
speakers. Use the type that have a headphone input that "cuts off" the
speakers (usually available even on the cheapest ones). I use inexpensive
headphones also. Flex allows me to equalize however I like anyway.

So far I have gotten by using only headphones but I want to put in some
wall mounted speakers.
I was looking at theses from monoprice.

Would I need to use a speaker amp to drive them?

I believe you'll be better off with decent powered monitors such as these:

I had major RF on HF running my KW even with an extensive ground system.
Adding type 31 mix ferrite snap on beads eliminated the problem.
Put them on each speaker cable as close to the computer or radio as possible
withe at least 5-8 turns on the bead.

Charles,
yes you would need a speaker amp.. The Flex radios do not include a
built in speaker amp.

I use my stereo amp and speakers. If the station is properly grounded, there
is no RF. A mixer equalizer is used ahead of the stereo amp. All my radios
feed the mixer. It's amazing how much better the rigs sound witha low
distortion audio and big speakers.
