I've ran accross this speaker online and both me and a friend are curious as to how it sounds. Also, if you could chime in on the Overeture 1's, that'd help! I appreciate it!! (Not in a position to go hear them)

    So you've (regretfully) heard them I take it?

    So I'm curious, have you guys had a chance to listen to them in a home theater or music environment? And I'd assume the evals are of both 3's and 1's?

    Heard both in a dual purpose ht and music rig. Nothing about either of them really did a thing for me.
    There was just something... Sort of like you hate someone simply because everything they do rubs you the wrong way.

    I heard a pair of overture 1s powered by an adcom gfa-555. Thought they had a nice relaxing sound to them.

    Heard all the Overtures. They're good for HT, but far from it for music. If you're getting them for cheap, you can do much worse.
