Would be very interested to see what the shots are like with a white backdrop, if you do get round to buying one.

Does that make sense?
Not to me :lol:

However , it is probably me .

I'm glad you've said that DQ, as the front-on photos were done to hopefully give a reason why I prefer the 'angled' pictures. It's ok for individual components (and will probably be the default for them) but for the grouped items, whilst fun, it's a bit of a no-no imho. Makes things look a bit 2-dimensional aswell.

Got the cables to get through now, although the LS7 is connecting my Sony amp to the ProAcs at the moment...ever heard the phrase 'cold dead hands?' I don't really want to un-hook it. :mrgreen:

The close-up 'arty farty' photos would be used as a website header page (or a back-drop to script) as they're pretty useless as portrayal of actual components.

Agree, even using something like brushed aluminium as a surface to sit the kit on reducing the reflection to even more of an abstract would be better for me, but yes have the LED lit too.

I do like the 3/4 angle of view though much better than flat on irrespective of the front/back view

Looks good.

You really need to make sure the amps are clean though. Finger marks and stuff really stand out.
