How much do you have to spend?
How often do you smoke? How big of hits do you take?
Do you only smoke top shelf and are a snob OR do you not really care?
Have you hit or do you own any "scientific glass?"
All these Q's matter. Let us know :)
Hey bro, you mind giving me your opinion? I was looking at the Mobius Matrix. I dig em all -the ion, the reg bubbler, and the strato versions. I'll answer the q's you posted & my concerns. I appreciate any help & good advice.
I don't smoke a lot anymore. Can't say why - but it's about 1 wk/mo & not heavily since I don't have a steady tolerance built up. But just b/c I'm not a daily toker anymore doesn't mean that I don't think an expensive, quality piece is worth it, actually just the opposite - I'd rather pay up for the full connoissuer experience since it's not a regular thing. I don't take big hits & my big 18" straight (non-perc'd) sometimes makes me cough so hard that I avoid it & normally just go with a pipe or vape. I can handle it I suppose w/ very carefully regulated tokes & ice. Just not the smoker I used to be back in the glory days LOL. Not interested in anything but top shelf. Haven't hit anything like a Toro, only a Wicked Sands Tiny Tube - 12" beaker w/ 10 arm tree, but only a couple times (bought it as a gift for my bro) & had to treat it like a bubbler due to splash, though we may have had too much water in it.
So basically I'm looking for something smooth & easy, definitely not a lung-buster. I just ordered a carbon filter which is supposed to smooth out smoke pretty well. Youtube vids show the Matrix bubbler has great diffusion on a drag & clears instantly on the clear. The only diff I can see b/w the 2 bubs are 60mm vs 75 mm & a bit of height. They are expensive bubs, but what beautiful pieces, yeah? I'd even go for the Strato if I thought it wouldn't tear me up. Seems like a steal at $440. TIA
