25" vs 32" Stargate

[DrunkenWizard]

I want to get a 32" Black Nickel Stargate.  Taqseem doesn't have
any at this time, but they do have the 25".  What's the advantages
and disadvantages between the two.  Is it possible to get the 25"
now and get a piece or two to make it taller?

Taqseem recently said he does not sell the pieces separately, but maybe if we keep asking...

If Taqseem does start to sell additional stem pieces for extra, it
would be for ornamental purposes only. You would not get a better smoke
by simply adding 6" of stem. The only time I could see there being a
difference in quality of smoke is if you were to add like 5-8
additional sections, and that would just make the smoke stale, nothing
more.

But one thing I'm not too sure about. I have the 25" Stargate, is the
32" Stargate simply a 25" stargate with 1 additional section of stem?
Or is the chamber and everything bigger as well?

I got a message from Taqseem saying that the 32" Stargate does have a
bigger base as well as a thicker stem.  I think I'm going to wait
for the 32" Black Nickel.

How much more does it cost? Taqseem seems to be avoiding me, haha

If you are looking for a great smoking hookah, why wait?  This is
not a case of bigger is better.  The 25" smokes fantastic.  I
would bet my left nut that if you did a blind A/B comparison betweent
the two as far as smoking quality, you would not be able to tell which
one was bigger or smaller. 

Now, if you want the bigger one just for aesthetic reasons, that's a
different story, and you should go ahead and wait to get one.  If
you just want a good smoke, buy the smaller one now.

I hope one day he decides to start selling his parts seperately.  First of all, if one of my stem sections ever gets scratched I may want to replace it. Secondly Id like to be able to buy some of those nice grommets he gives you, Ive not seen any this good anywhere else.
