blackoutbilly Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Alright so I'm a little new to the various brands of hookahs and which are good, which are bad, etc. I've been smoking out of a Mya Artoo since September, but it was my roommates and he was a dipshit and forgot to bring it back to school so I'm taking matters into my own hands.I'm currently looking at these three... http://www.hookah-shisha.com/store/pc/conf...;idproduct=1755 http://www.hookah-shisha.com/store/pc/conf...;idproduct=1738 (in black)http://www.thehookah.com/khalil-mamoon-medium-ice-34.htmlLet me know any thoughts on either one of these...I'm trying to understand why the KMs are so much cheaper than the Myas, and I'm also wondering if it's possible to add additional hoses onto the KMs or if they're just single hose hookahs. Also, I've been browsing around trying to find the best overall website to order from, so if any of you know of good places to order from please let me know. And one more question, I've noticed some people talk about using a carb, but I never used one on the Artoo and don't really understand the concept of using a carb when smoking out of a hookah because the smoke always stays right in the chamber. Hopefully you guys can help me out, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joytron Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 the "carb" is to clear out stale or harsh smoke. I am sure you will be happy with any of the ones posted above. I have a KM ice and it smokes amazingly well, but I also love the look of the staff. The KM listed can not be made into a multi hose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inino Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 every one of those is a great pipe that wont disappoint you. if you are after a modern looking pipe go with the mya, if you want more traditional go with the KM. there are KM 2 hoses now, but i would not recommend them because there is no autoseal and come with 1 hose. if you want multi hose go mya. i think hookahshisha.com is probably the best site to get a mya, and maybe mnhookah.com hookahcompany.com hookahjohn.com for KMs.the ice chamber does very little by the way. but its a good pipe regardless.

NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 for me it would be a coin toss between the gyro and the km ice they are both beautiful.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinyj316 Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I would say either the top or the bottom one... Personally, I don't like the look of ice chambers, but don't let my personal preference sway you...They're all great choices, and will smoke like a champ...

ryno Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I dont think you can go wrong with any of those 3 hookahs honestly. If you want a mulit hosed KM, thehookah.com has them on there. Unlike Myas though, you cant switch between using 1-4 hoses (well you could with plugs).I'd also check out hookahcompany.com hookahjohn.com mnhookah.com for hookahs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Gyro or Staff You won't be disappointed in either. KM ice is good too but that would be my last choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecyrax Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Well, I already have a multi-hose (MYA Paragon) so I may be a bit biased, but I'd say go with the KM.I love that base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackoutbilly Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Alright thanks a lot for all the help..., I think I'm gonna go with the Gyro for my first one and maybe later on upgrade to a KM just for some variety...can I still use KM hoses with the Gyro?

Nikon1323 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 all 3 of those look amazing....if your looking for a multi-hose get the mya there awesome to add more hoses and you can auto seal all of them if you like that....the KM is nice but like i said if you lookin for multi-hose get the mya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
