You made a perfect first choice. I love my Sub and Explorer II as a collection but if I had a gun to my head and only had to choose one, I'd go with exactly what you selected.

Great first choice. Not the "common" sub or DJ (which you will eventually probably have now that the big has bit you). Love the gmt and love that gmt.
