All this talk about audio "chips" and tiny little speakers, makes me long
for the days when real radios had push-pull 6V6's and "phono" positions on
the mode switch :-)

Failing that the Sounds Sweet is very efficient, and puts out all the audio
I've ever wanted from the O.  Except for the Icom SP-20, I've never found
any OEM speaker to be particularly good.
