Yes, I can see the justification on cost/realism grounds (you want something non-shonky that looks just like a sub but you'll never afford a sub) but personally I'd prefer to spend the money on something that looks like its own thing rather than just a copy of something.
I guess at least the Nomadic has different hands so hasn't gone down the full-on copy route of a Steinhart but it still has enough of the features that it looks a bit like a cheap copy but isn't cheap enough to justify that.
It doesn't seem cheap enough for a black bay knock off. (Although I guess I'm thinking of my black bay which cost about £1,800 new, I've no idea how much they cost now.)
I'd prefer something that has its own design rather than being so obvious a homage (the reason I don't like a lot of Steinharts too).
