From the INRAD website:
*TEN-TEC OMNI VI RECEIVE AUDIO MOD
The Omni VI is a great CW radio. Here is a mod which greatly
improves the SSB receive audio. Both the upper cutoff and lower cutoff
are extended and the in band ripple is eliminated with this mod. The
result is crisp, clean sounding receive audio. Installation can be done
in 30 minutes. Price: $15.
This is a couple of capacitors and resitors with instructions.

I have a MkV Field and an FT1000D and with internal or external speaker
they sound better to my inner or outer ears than my on the chopping
block Orion with external and internal speaker. The OmniVI+ with the
audio mod in it sounds better than an Orion.

Wonder how the Orion's SSB audio sounds compared to an Omni VI??
For some reason, to my ears, my FT990 seems to sound better than my Omni
VI
on ssb.

I have an R4A I've been repairing here on the bench and with the same
speaker, it sounds better than the Orion :-).

I agree. The receive audio is lousey on the Orion.
Maybe you just need a decent speaker. Or perhaps your inner ear needs
some
work :-)
The Orion has excellent SSB receive audio, as good or better than any HF
rig
I've used (many, new and old), and generally requires little in the way
of
receive EQ. I do much prefer it with a little more than the usual
bandwidth
(say around 3 Khz or so), but that's no different than most radios which
sound like cr*p at the typical narrow bandwidths everyone want to use.
Of course, it would benefit greatly from a pair of P-P 6V6's in the
output
stage, but I doubt that's in the plan :-)
