Re: Do the Jitterbug !

Re: Ooh! New Shoes

They do mate. The Cubes sound great on them too. Some beautiful music coming out of those boxes this morning via the HFB Digi+ Pro. Have you seen the Allo DigiOne? Supposedly even better. Wondering to try it. Really affordable. Was looking at that new board from Allo - but I doubt it is any better ...
