Omega speakers -- mostly sold out, all the time?

Hi OP,

Louis is fantastic and the bill quality is superb.  He used to be a cabinet maker and had a passion for HiFi - combined the 2 into building speakers.

His website and marketing aren’t his strong suites.  His products are a tremendous value for the $$.  His designs, speaker type are specific, his speakers won’t fit everyone’s gear, needs but if they do, wow.  Call him, he’ll ask the right questions and custom build a great speaker based on the gear you have, your preferences and needs.  He’s a great, knowledgeable guy who cars, has passion and takes great pride in his craft.  
 

I can totally see why you would ask about Omega based on his web site and how he goes to market, has a strange, hokey feel to it, don’t let that scare you off.  Good Luck. 

As I said in my OP, I’m not trying to trash him or his company. Rather, the way his website was listing things was confusing if not misleading -- that’s all I was saying.

On the "Available Now" page, everything says "Sold Out". Perhaps the banner on the home page could be repeated on this page -- Accepting Orders, or words to that effect.

Pointing out something misleading is not a criticism of a "business model," it’s constructive criticism and that’s all. It is surely a "good business model" to accept constructive criticism from potential customers. Over and out on this thread, which I regret posting.

Louis is as easy to talk to about what you want as any in the business. And the fact that you can get a custom build in a short time frame is worth it. I have the SAM’s and love them, may get a pair of passive subs at some point from him. Check out his Instagram page, an incredible gallery of his builds. Plus why would you want something of the shelf when you can get exactly what you want with a short wait.

He often has speakers for sale but they sell quickly. I have a pair of Super 3 XRS HO towers (may have butchered the model name) and they're my favorite speaker thus far. I run them with a 45 SET tube amp and also a Rogue Cronus Magnum 3. I would just email or call him, he's a really nice guy, very helpful. This is art he's building, sometimes the websites just aren't a priority.

This would not be the only small manufacturer that confuses or chases away potential clients with the wording on their web site. Ohm Speakers was doing something similar -- when you clicked on their order button, it said "unavailable" regardless of which model you selected. By itself, that started some online rumors that the company was having problems.  However, it was nothing more than them working through a backlog of orders. Once pointed out to them, they switched their ordering system to having people just call their phone number where the potential buyer could have a discussion with a live person -- a much better way to handle things.
