Orion announced a new inventory swap program that lets dealers trade in current inventory from other suppliers for a credit towards Orion products.
The company also announced it is shipping its XTR amplifier line of Class A/B and Class D amplifiers.
Regarding the inventory swap program, dealers provide a copy of their invoice from another supplier and send the products to Orion’s warehouse. They then receive a credit towards Orion product for that dollar amount.

That’s a strong offer!
I have seen those kind of offers in the alarm business before but not in amps and speakers. At least not a public offer. Be hard for a dealer to turn down that offer if he has too much paid for, slow moving inventory laying around. Of course the devil is in the details..
