Yes my thoughts as well. I wish my camera took pics like
that.

Reference, they used a Nikon D700 camera to take that pic. It's $2200 - $2700 (without a lens).

They used a 2.8 lens at 24mm) Here is a 24mm - 70mm 2.8 lens for $1889.

Is it a very nice photo? Yes. Does it look like a $4589 photo to you? [:D]

FWIW, with proper lighting and skills (I'm not talking about me), you can get very similar or even better results without spending near that much on a camera and lens.

I took a wild guess but who knows, maybe they used a disposable camera. [:P]

When you take a photo, your camera stores info called Exif data. I downloaded the image, right click and choose properties, then click the summary button.

The Exif data tells resolution, camera make and model, date image was taken, whether the flash was used, aperture, focal length, ISO etc. This is great for photographers to see what camera settings were used to achieve a certain look.

Well I ordered my XPA-2 last night , I will using the XPA-3 for the rear surrounds and center and the XPA-2 for the fronts . I guess at this point I will be looking for a pre amp down the road after xmas .

Very nice I am excited to see if you hear an upgrade from

the xpa-3 to the xpa-2 on the rf-7ii. I’m changing to 7.1 (speakers and stands

are ordered) so I’m thinking about going to the xpa-2 as well.

Well I purchased the XPA-2 on ebay , and in the listing it said

"The amp is about 9 months old and is in perfect electronic and cosmetic condition. It will ship in the original box, with the manual, power cord and 12V remote trigger cord."
Then I get this email
In packing it up, I noticed a couple small abrasions near the rear plate. These won't be visible it it is placed in a stand of some sort and would be easy to fix. I probably bumped it while getting it in my stand.
So I guess I need to see what it looks like , since the seller already shipped it
