I don't really regret any gear investments because at the time I got some use out of those LED fixtures that are now sooo obsolete. Yeah, the Chauvet minspots were at least my chance to get an idea of what can be done with moving heads. They actually worked out OK for small weddings. Most of the lighting I bought 5-10 years ago isn't used anymore and it seems like wasted money. But it really wasn't. Getting Freestyler for free made up for it.
The Carvin 1801 powered subwoofer OTOH has been useful for years and I bought it used. May not kick butt like heavy yorkvilles, but it's done the job for small-medium weddings and even school dances.
Other good investments - EV speakers, yamaha speakers, 223xl crossover, R&R cart.
