Re: What sub should I get?Hey Lisa,Definitely read Bob McCarthy's Sound Systems: Design and Optimization. With a basic physics understanding and a background in audio, that book is pretty much a bible. It may take a little bit of re-reading and asking some questions over here, but it provides a look into the physics of sound, acoustics, and what it takes to design and integrate a loudspeaker system.As far as owning gear goes- think about it a lot before you accumulate any debt with it. Don't invest more than you're sure you can get a return on in a short amount of time. I've considered owning my own gear- but outside of a decent mic collection, I don't own much more than some speakers on sticks, an 01v96, and cabling/support to make it go together. Generally working for clubs or regional production companies, I rarely use my own gear. When I need something more than I can provide for on my own, I reach out to those who can adequately support the client's needs.
