Hey guys I know this is all opinion but if you hAd 750 bucks to spend which one light or 2 would you get. Keep in mind reflectors , speed ring, or whatever else I need . I'll use it for indoor interviews. I can't afford a3-4 light kit and I am tired of no control using stupid par cans. I don't know if dedo arri lowel etc. So many choice and topics and variations that ny head hurts. Thanks

Look for used lighting on eBay.

Consider above all else, open face focusable tungsten fixtures like Lowel and Colortran. They are comparably less expensive (than fresnel fixtures) and are lighter and smaller.

Consider some of the good low cost fluorescent fixtures like the coollights stuff.

Don't get caught up in the "kit" mentality. You can do a lot with 3 fixtures if you know what you're doing and you can do enough with one fixture if you really know what you're doing.
