I had to switch carriers - Allstate I belive (I will update shortly if that's wrong). For an extra $10 a month I have a "rider" that covers an additional $100k of gear as well as additional Liability coverage for my home-based small business.

really? did you tell them that it was a professional studio? my insurance won't cover equipment if used for business. bmi has an insurance broker they wanted around $600/yr to cover around $75k in equip + 1 million in liability.

Give Joe a call. He knows studios. I guess that's a fourth.
