500's have plenty of low end, even the new 322's have fairly good bass response. of course, it really depends on how accurate you want the sound reproduction to be. given that it isnt the main point i would think a sub would be a bit of a waste.

powered boxes are the simplest answer, specially when you the music isnt the main thing. i'd go rcf before i went jbl eon. I like most everything else that jbl have done, dont like their powered boxes. not only does eon have an off sound to me but they look like shit. rcf/ mackie is the way to go.

Naturally I'm not advocating a stage of nothing but funk based breaks, I'm just saying dont forget the funk.

if your concern is that you want to be familiar with what most places have then i would suggest buying some second hand cdjs. either 100's or 200's.

if you want it to be REALLY realistic drop them in a bucket of beer from about 5 foot in the air. Then dry em out and play on em.
