    Camera is probably o.k. Even the cheap ones take decent pics. He probably just doesn't know how to use it.

    Kabuki in my book.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Kabuki is alittle harsh, but I do think that they were designed strictly for boasting and rarely find room to breath in the setups I have seen them in.

    I've demo'd them, and they sound great but why on earth would one spend the money on them? They require above average power, for IMO nothing extraordinary.

    No thanks, you won't find any I's in my playbook, ever. I have been underwhelmed by far too many to really care anymore. Not my sound.
