Well, for that price I got 3 pretty powerful White Lightning heads
(the 1600s) and stands, a case, and umbrellas, and the remote control
system.  So even with inflation you should be able to get the parts of
that you need :-).  So I think that's one decent choice.

I bought direct from White Lightning / Paul Buff, though I think since
then I've also seen them in some major catalogs.
