I am creeped out by how attracted I am to VU meters.

Your pictures are MUCH nicer than mine. Your second picture could easily be a marketing photograph. Which camera'd you use?
My old point and shoot was actually oddly better than my current one. Old Sony with Zeiss optics, used to use rechargeable AA batteries, but it started draining the batteries (even brand new ones) within an hour of use, so I got rid of the camera. My current one is borrowed from a family member. Low-end Canon, mainly designed for pocketability.
I'm thinking of grabbing a Sony NEX-5N. Got good reviews on the dpreview website.
Both of your amps look awesome. You have a pretty nice setup.

I hate point and shoot cameras. I really need to spring for a new one.
Sometimes it's easier to get a nice shot with a point and shoot than with a DSLR.
Just depends.....
Here's a couple I took of my Phonitor (and yes the LF's in there too).

10 hours in on the Siemens Platinum's (yeah they're just babies at this point) but I'm already extremely pleased with them!
They really are the ideal tube for the LF and LCD3.
Silky smooth mids, nicely rounded bottom end, and a very sweet yet detailed top end. Oh and that 3D like imaging... yummy!
As much as I like the Telefunken's, I'm definitely preferring the Siemens and that's saying A LOT considering they are currently nowhere near being worked in yet.
^ incidentally seriously considering a canon 7D purchase here.
You wouldn't happen to have a higher-resolution version of this picture, would you? If so, I think I just found my new desktop wallpaper.
(Assuming that's okay with you, of course...)
You can't go wrong with a 7D. I've had one for a while, and currently is the best bang for the buck as far as performant APS-C cameras go. However, add a good lens and you're close to $2k. FWIW, the NEX-5N, which I also had, has the best image quality among mirrorless cameras, but is plagued by issues of its own, such as slow focus. I had one for a few months and with a toddler in the house I had more misses than hits. My 5DIII was really good, but bulky, so I traded down to another mirrorless, the Olympus E-M5, which has very fast focus. Sorry for the long off-topic post.
