DizzyGuy Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 First off... let me say THANK YOU for reading through topics That rocks... you might have more questions now, but you'll know more in the end. I can't comment about several questions... but as for the coal... have you tried breaking the coals in half? Maybe use 1 1/2 coals Even a full two coals seperated out to the edge of the bowl might help some Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Auto seal is not worth it, it is just one more thing that can break and ruin a good night of hookahing. I have a two hose and love it because it smokes fin with both hoses if one person covers their hose, which is not hard to do, and when I want a one hose I just put in the plug. Three or more hoses is a bit excessive, I think. Washable hoses are great, beacue they can be cleaned regurly, and don't rust or fall apart as fast.

DizzyGuy Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 I've never used an autoseal system with a two and three hose hookah... but it still worked fine for me... jsut make sure if it's a multiple hose hookah, it's a little bigger or else the draw is UBER tight and sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceOddity Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 Thanks for the quick replys. There is a Hookah bar I've gone to a few times and the coals they use are quick lite but they are much bigger then the normal 33mm. I'm not sure if they are 3 kings 40mm or some other type of coal. Does anyone know about these??Thanks for the advice Joseph. Yah 2 would be the most I get for hoses. Are cobrah hoses washable at all?Another question, how are those double head bowls? They work well for mixing flavors or are they not worth it? I've even seen quad head bowls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DizzyGuy Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 the multiple head bowls have been discussed and pretty much just dismissed... most people jsut physically mix the shisha together and put it in the bowl. My guess would be the 40mm 3kings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malakas Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Myas are renowned for their quality, i.e. durability of the bases, craftsmenship of the step, etc. and in the slim chance that something goes WRONG with their hookahs, they're renowned for superb customer service. Lots of good reviews out there regarding Taqseem's Stargate and rotators out there. I'm not positive but I think they'll fit your budget.Hose washability really depends on the manufacturer but I'm sure most of the cobra hoses out there have removable heads for easy cleaning.

DizzyGuy Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Yes, the Stargates will fit your budget www.Taqseem.com Look around at their hookahs, they aren't shabby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceOddity Posted August 26, 2006 Author Share Posted August 26, 2006 All fo this help is awesome. Thanks a lot.Yah, I was looking at the Stargates as an option but my girlfriend thinks they look too much like Coffee Pots. Since shes the main person I smoke with, I guess that one is out of the question.I was thinking about a Mya acrylic because they are supposed to have such good performance. But why do all acrylics look the same at the base. That same 3 striped pattern. They look like plastic to me. Do they look better up close? Is there a reason for that design?Do Myas come in 2 hose versions or do you need to get the adapter?So I gather with modern hookahs it's hard to ssy if it will be good quality or not until you actually buy it? With the coals, I think I was heating it up to much, because it would get harsh way too quickly and unsmokable. Ill try the 1 1/2 idea and maybe not packing it up so high.I think I'm definitely getting a 2 hose, it's just hard limiting the options down. You guys say great stuff about the polaris, but theres so many more that I like the look of more. I think I have something against Egyptian stems, or bases or something. I never seem to care for the look that much. Sahara Smoke seems to have a lot of really nice ones too. Has anyone ever gotten a Hookah and been disappointed in it?I heard its possible to take out the balls in the auto-seal system? If that isn't too difficult I guess I just need to get down to it and choose one of those doubles out there.Sorry that I'm all over the place with so many questions. You guys are being a great help though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kilgore trout Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 All Myas can be made as 1,2,3,or 4 hose hookahs if you call Myasaray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceOddity Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 I'm having the hardest time picking out a Mya. Which I think I'm going with becasue of the quality you hear about in every thread you look in.I want a glass one, preferably with a carrying case. But why is there such a small selection on the site? I've seen a lot of pictures on the forums that aren't on the site at all.Also, is there an extra charge for getting it 2 hose? Getting a different base or stem then on the picture?If you get a a certain stem does that mean you can't fit it in the carrying case?Any other sites that have a bigger selection of affordable Myas? Other then the QT. Im looking for one atleast 25" Thanks for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpaceOddity Posted August 31, 2006 Author Share Posted August 31, 2006 So I'm thinking about this Hookah right here[url="http://www.myasaray.com/store/item.asp?ITEM_ID=934&DEPARTMENT_ID=42"]http://www.myasaray.com/store/item.asp?ITE...EPARTMENT_ID=42[/url]Anybody have any experience with this hookah?Also would it be better or cheaper to just get the 2 hose adapter rather then get it custom made??Evans Light you've been a big help, thanks.

EvansLight Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 i havent used it, but its mya, if it sucks they will probably give you a refund, especially if you get it from them.and just get the 2 hose adapter, saves trouble make sure you get an extra hose, and make sure u get 2 adapters, so both sides are auto seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
