Just curious as to what you guys run for external speakers for your base?
I've run both passive and powered speakers and tried eqing and compression/agc leveling
And pre emphasis.
Right now I'm using a Jbl lrs305 with a dsp unit20210619_132917.jpg
 

I use Kenwood KES-5 mobile speakers at the base. They sound great.

Love that sound. Dreamed of having a Mark III as a teen in the '70s. Just a bit outta reach then...........

Enjoy & 73

And they ain’t cheap now either lol!
I bought my 3 on eBay a few years ago.
I took a chance only because it was super clean looking and the description showed pictures of it operating. (If it turns on, I can fix
Other things it may need, blown transformers suck! Lol) been talking on it every day for 2 years and it’s been flawless. I was happy to discover that both pieces had been re capped. Paid $425. Well worth it as the prices have gone up in two years.
