[QUOTE="PreppyHippy, post: 244639, member: 2706"] I've got at least two Savs that fit the balsa filters or use the adapter or in which one can use nothing at all. For no good reason I've always made sure I put the adapter in. I'm not interested in the filters (I want to run a pipe cleaner through mid-bowl or more if I wish) and I put the adapter in because I tend instinctively to want to smoke a pipe as it was designed to be smoked; the adapter keeps the air channel uniform, in theory, under the argument that that reduces the turbulance in the air stream and thus the condensation that accumulates around edges. Also reducing the wider reservoir space for the condensed moisture to collect and be harder for a skinny standard pipe cleaner to collect. One of these days I'll try out a balsa filter just to see how the experience goes. Can't hurt and I might like it. [/QUOTE]
