Hi Paul.

I have a general speaker in a plywood box for testing vintage sets but my comms rx uses a small dedicated speaker which I chose for it's limited response bearing in mind you only really need something for speech. If like me you are mainly interested in listening to amateur radio on SSB rather than DX broadcast then a speaker with a limited response is usualy better. Some of my listening is done at night so then I use headphones anyway.
