At $300 a pair, they should be well worth it (assuming they're in good shape and you're not going to be goin mad trying to find a matching center). Where are you getting them for that price?
I found them on craigslist and already went to look at them, 3 blocks from my house.
I wish the 6 1/2" were not subs on those but o well....so basically they would be about the same as the JBL mains i have, that also have the matching center.
I dont need these at all but it seems like a good deal.
The Overture 3's are definatly worth $300 a pair provided they are in good shape. I ran a pair of the Overture 1's for many years and recently sold a complete 5.1 system with them as the mains to my next door neighbor. The O-3's are sound very good in 2 channel but you still will need a sub for any serious HT usage.
Oh, I remember when those came out. I think I was in middle school. I wanted some of those, along with some Acoustic Research AR1's. But obviously, I didn't have a job and my parents wouldn't buy them for me.
Keep your eyes pealed, you may find another good deal.
My Overture 3s have been in constant use for 17 years now, first in a home theater environment, and now anchoring a stereo-only living room system. I can't begin to describe the amount of sheer pleasure these speakers have given us. It would take much more than $300 for me to part with them. I'd buy them again in a heartbeat.
