Pavo21 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I troll these forums a lot on my lunch breaks and when im at home a lot. and lots of people prefer KM it seems like, but im a Mya guy i like the pull you get having a little back pressure is nice in my mind most i smoke with agree. But, i do enjoy others with the smoke quality and quantity. guess its all on preference. i have crystal mya that is amazing smokes smooth and with a little back pressure but its depends on how you pack your bowl and coal control. any other opinions? because im looking to get something different then mya. (plus my buddy is the biggest dealer of mya in California no knock off shit) [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/Blitzbolt/df12722f.jpg[/IMG] smoking out of my brown one now [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v684/Blitzbolt/eaecc7dc.jpg[/IMG] my red crystal one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm a big fan of handmade Egyptians. Nammor and KM are my faves, but I'd love to get a hold of a Temsaah sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo21 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 yeah i like those hookahs also the temsaah aren't that good, i've smoked outta the quantam one and it was ok not the best the vases aren't really the best quality but for the price they are good, they break easy to but i do like the look of them espically the smoked glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chreees Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Egypitans (mainly KMs) and Syrians (mainly Al Nawras) are my favorite kinds of hookahs. I really like that tall Mya in the middle with that dark vase... Got any better pics of it? Looks like a boho... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavo21 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 um i have another its dark outside now i'll take a picture but yah its a boho brown love it my favorite out of all our hookahs. ive never seen a brown stem like this one ever so i take extreme care of it wash it every night, becuase i want it to last for ever.

TheyCallMeDave Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 First off, trolling? Lol I think you mean lurking. We haz no like for trolls. Not that you are one.... Secondly, EXCUzZZZZZZZEEEE MEEE??? I love my temsah. Unfortunately, I do have to agree with you. As much as I love the makes of the temsah pipes, the welding is very shady and the overall make of the pipe is a little shotty for my tastes. However, I do love the sturdiness and overall weight/smokability of the pipe. Of all the pipes I've smoked, Temsah are Farida are my favorite pipes. Both Egyptian brass, very heavy, very robust pipes. A little bit of a restraint on the pull, but that's the way I like it. Still a nice open draw, seeing as they're both Egyptian pipes, but they both have a little bit of resistance to them to even out the draw. Coming from someone who likes a more traditional look with a few modern "KM like" flares added, I would say Temsah and Fardia are both good options.

vendetta_revived Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Call me crazy but I swear i've seen the third picture before. Aren't you the guy who found that stem in your garage or something and then cleaned it and stuff? If not, sorry. :-s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucky13 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 i love my KM dont get me wrong, but more recently i have been smoking my econo mya more then my km.... i dont have a big mya so i dont know the comparison.. id like to get one after i buy my bike though. my km is a nice smoke and its smooth with a lot of cloud production but my mya just has a more natural feel to it and seems to be a little more consistent..

Coyote Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 No one has mentioned the dog licking his butt??? I prefer KMs. They are big, sturdy, and very beautiful on the shelf. IMO, Myas are just overpriced for a machined piece of glass. I hate the way they smoke, the way they look and their price. I've said it before in former threads but since you asked I thought I would say it again. If for some reason I had to get a brand new hookah that wasn't a KM I would probably get an Nour because they are have the sturdiness of the KMs and look fancy... Princess' like fancy things. What can I say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I wanna see pictures of your Crystal Base!!! I grab my Nour Stem on my Mya Crystal base, Mya Obelisk or KM OG Trimetal as my prefered smokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A13lackFish Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I typically prefer KM's as they stand out and smoke like champs. They have huge trays, and very sturdy builds. Overall a reliable "sure thing" of a brand when your smoking hookah. (Literally when you hear "oh I have a KM" you instantly know your session will likely smoke very well). If I am looking for flashy, also well smoking hookahs I would prefer a Syrian or a Mya. Both look amazing, the Syrians tend to have a slightly larger tray (like the KM) and have very cool designs etched into them. Overall I guess I could say I am more a fan of smoking out of large hookahs 30" + than smaller ones, to me it seems like there is less management needed and less troubles to be had.

claytronmeans Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 lol Did you just say that Temsah's aren't strong, or the base? Because I'm fairly certain that you could shatter someone's leg with one, and then set up two seconds later and smoke out of it. I've yet to find a stronger, more sturdy pipe.

Pavo21 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 for the temsah pipes the ones i have held and lifted didn't feel that heavy or strong compared to any other hookahs of mine, and there are a couple at my buddies shop,so its just from my prospective thats all. i do like the look of there smoked glass but that is it, and i have been wanting to get a KM for a while i like the way they look to i've only smoked out of like 2-3 of them before, so yah. and yah that brown hookah we found it in my buddies man cave it is my gf's (which i claimed mine as soon as i saw it) she said i can have it as a gift so i took it. but she has so many hookahs from over the years that she looses track of them, she is a member on here well used to be active but not any more. her names erica she was a moderator with eric back in the day. down fall on getting anything else really besides mya is that i dont have a whole lot of experience with others since everyone i know gets thier pipes from our buddy for whole sale so, but i want something new maybe i'll just have to go bug eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S3cretz Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Four things I look for in a good smoking hookah. 1. Hose port. I like the Egyptian style hose ports(km's ,Temsah,farida) and I hate the screw on crap myas and any other Chinese or mod brands use. So what if you get a check valve the session suffers from it. The only Hookah id smoke with a chineese ish port is the Obelisk but thats because overall the obelisk is put together marvellously. 2. Stem Design The longer the better and preferably brass since I feel it cools the smoke. also wide gauge stems. 3. (Tip of the stem, Bowl connector, pointy bit) whatever you want to call it I need it to be in the Egyptian style Cone shaped.I hate the thin ass mod hookah style its too much of a mission to get a bowl on it. 4. Ashtray's I like a hookah with more than 1 ashtray 1 for ash one for tongs. my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigpatvoodoodad Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Solo smoking gets either the QT or Econo Gelato (smoking AF Apricot now). For parties and to impress the KM OG Tri-metal comes out to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoRSX Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I really dig my MYA Staff, guess I'm a MYA guy. Love the red crystal one. I hope to pick one up eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I was a pretty big Mya guy until I got my first KM. I still use my crystal Mya, but on most days I'll go with the KM. Love the Egyptian style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hassouni Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Uh oh guess what I'm gonna say: No-name Lebanese pipes and Elmas for the god damn win. The former because they look sleek as hell, smoke great and are dirt cheap and light (making them easy to transport), the Elmas for their intricacy and sheer solidness.

mustang67n Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I've only smoked no-name egyptians, mya's, KM's and no-name chinese/mods The KM's are by far my favorite. The Mya's are my second (love my qt) but the KM is be(a)st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotsi95 Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I have smoked off most of the pipes out there and nothing IMO beats an OLD km. The newer kms just arn't built to my liking. Mya's have a mass produced feel to them and the restriction gets on my nerves. My go to is my old OG tri with my jumbo boho on it. By far the sexiest hookah imo.
