I looked up that Sweet Sounds speaker on the Internet, and it looks like a
pretty good accessory. Pretty good efficiency, optimized response shaping
to eliminate high-end hiss and extraneous junk as well as "boomyness" in the
low end. Is it as good as the web page makes it sound?

The chip is designed to deliver 2.5 Watts into an 8 Ohm load
with 13.8 volts power and distortion under 10%.
I find that the speakers levels are quite loud using a
Kenwood SP-31 for the external speaker, which is a fairly
efficient unit.
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.
