    Thanks Mark. That’s what I’m doing now, just wondering if someone have found an advantage either way.

    Agree, speaker out from the Flex is best.

    I use a pair of COMSpkr from west mountain, great price, great sound, just plugs into Flex 6300 here. I usually operate remote, and I like having an on/off power switch so the radio is silent with no opportunity to make noise when operating remotely.

    I use the Heil parametric audio system with the powered speaker. Very low distortion and very configurable audio. Much faster than using the slide audio in the flex. Knobs work well here. Also the Heil audio system is well protected against rf interference even with a leagle limit amp.

    If you really want to hear just how good the flex audio is, get some Bose companion speakers or other good quality speakers.

    Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 in my shack, wired to both the computer and the Flex. An A-B switch lets me flip between the two.

    How do you get Flex audio to your hearing aids?

    Likely he is using an audio to bluetooth sending unit.   Many modern hearing aids
    can pair with a bluetooth audio device.  [real]

    Me, more old fashion;    I just feed the audio out to a modulated Tesla HV coil, 
    and the resulting "audio" is received via the bi-metal (Gold & Mercury) filling in
    my tooth :-)   [joking, or a lame attempt]
