I have the overture .3S
I do love them, but they took a little work to get the sound right.
Much better bi amped. I have Space-Tech Preamp and amps(low power set amp for horns and hybrid for the woofer)
I also think it was much better with a tube set up. I listened with a high end krell pre and amps and there was no comparison. If you do not bi-amp make sure you get tone control.
If you do not mind last years models, the previous US distributor, RandyB (a great guy) has some closeouts available a good prices and may even go lower??
http://www.ossaudio.com/ (go to closeout link)
Also, I purchased my center channel from http://www.audiosalon.co.uk/
They have both the new models and some fantastic deals on a few in the demo area. Excellant service and communication
In the demo/used area they have for sale a $19,000 HM 212, for sale for about $7,800. If I had the bucks, hmmm.
I also love Eva Cassidy on the speakers! try Cowboy Junkies!
Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. I am going on vacation soon and may not reply for a week though.
Finally, it appears as if they may soon have a US distributor out of New York
