Well I pulled the trigger and will soon be the proud owner of a Ranger RX Quadra AS (2) A-head kit

The vintage ones were better!
I haven't played with mine enough yet, but I'm with Ed at this stage. Nice combination of light types.

That'll be a great setup for sure! If you plan to use lightstands i'm assuming you already have one. If you'll have an assistant i'd also recommend the Kacey boomstick. It's good to be able to move the light around a bit, especially if you have assistants. do you have a link for this.. i went to http://www.kaceyenterprises.com "Lighting will make or break your photo"
