Are audio technica 3000 lav mics decent in 2018? They will be hooked up with antenna distribution...
Opinions?

I think this will ultimately boil down to your application, what you are using them for, and the frequencies you have available, how many systems you're planning on using, etc. I've never been an AT person, I had a tainted bad experience years ago with an old install that cursed me away from AT. I'm sure their new stuff is fine. Worked at a church for a few years that swore by the 3000 series. They've refined the systems over the years and kept the same model number too.
Depending on your application / number of systems, you may want to look at digital with the recent 600 mHz splitup/auctions and rumors of more down the road. Will the 3000 work? We can only answer that if we know your application and desires of using said system.
eBayWHAT? I hope sweet water is still selling old transmitters. Should stock up while I can.
Oh no, those would be Vintage New In Box collectors items at double the price, or more.eBay
So they'll be sufficent for a theatre setup?
Sweetwater has the pricing up. Beltpack and receiver: $549. I think that the previous generation was $449.It's a new product yet to be seen in the wild... The previous version was used successfully but past performance is not a prediction of future sufficiency.
Perhaps also to be considered: the rumor mill is the USA pricing will be "more money" than the previous 3000 series. Add that to not being able to reuse existing AT microphone element inventory without adapters or re-termination and it makes me wonder what AT is trying to do here.
