My Rocket is dual holes and works quite well. I'm debating whether or not to go for a different ones. But so far so good.
I would also suggest you check out Single V in Burnaby. They sell coffee from Cat & Cloud (California based). The owner is also a car guy too.

I would not change the holes because it will have a marginal difference on a home machine. Most home espresso machines lack steam power which causes big foam bubbles to float to the top of the pitcher and leaving all the liquid at the bottom. Therefore this leads to a huge surge of foam coming out towards the end of the pour. A simple solution would be to transfer your heated milk into another milk jug to help incorporate the foam with the hot milk. I find this works well in most situations and I can create basic shapes (e.g. hearts, tulips) with even a saeco aroma.
