, which one do
>> you like better?
>>
>> NeilFor the price, you can't get any better. Is it not for official sale in
EU???? I buyed mine official in Cobenhagen the first year it came out and am
using it daily, together with Paris. I am using "oceans" of Behringer
products here and have used them for years without any problems at all, so
the myth about how bad Behringer products are is just a myth for me, but not
for Deej;-) I see the shops are selling it official in Cobenhagen.
