UK/Europe - Prebuilt xoxbox - where to buy and recommendatio

Post by oldskool »

Hi Well first post so greetings to all.

With the advent of the TB3 , like I suspect a few others, the xoxbox's have fallen back onto the radar. Been considering it for a while and now is the time :)

I'm not an electronics so need to source one prebuilt. Can see several recommended builders and got a couple of questions please.

1) What is the difference between buying retail "MODE machine" vs other sources?
2) What modes if any are recommended as a should/must have, if any?
3) Anything I need to watch out for and what questions should I be asking prepurchase?
4) I've read a little regarding firmware. What version should I be asking for or likely to get?
5) Anything else I need to be aware of please.

Thanks for your time.

Mode Machines tend to use chea p parts which won't make it sound as authentic as others and rubbish build quality.
