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

I've always been curious about Omega speakers, especially because I have tube amps.

It seems that whenever I go to their website, most of their products have a SOLD OUT banner across the speaker.

Does anyone know the backstory with Omega? Are they a company in trouble? Why would a company be mostly sold out for most models, most of the time?

I ask this respectfully and with genuine affection for a boutique builder like Omega.

And I will continue to believe what I wrote and disagree with you :)

He isn’t technically SOLD OUT. The BUY NOW section seems to be just like Tekton speakers, Lot’s of B Stock, cancelled ordered speakers, returns etc.

The PRODUCT section is where you order the speakers to be build, he has dozens of models and finishes to choose from.

I guess to prevent people thinking OMEGA is in trouble maybe he should rename the BUY NOW section??

I will add another regarding the sound quality. The OMEGA speakers for the price point to me, is way too low for what they sound like. These speakers are probably ignored because of the cheap price.

I am beginning to think that if you go for more affordable gear, simple designs like the Omega will compete with much more expensive gear. Baby Omega stand mounts with a SVS 3000 Micro sub is incredible sounding.

I compared a pair of the top line Rethm Saadhana ($16k Retail) to the Baby Omega and to my ears and others the Omegas were far better in every aspect.

I heard the Omegas with Primaluna Evo 300 amp...great synergy.
