To Perc or not to perc?

Hi all!
I'm on the market for a new bong and I'm looking for some advice as to what to get...I'm thinking the RooR Lil' Sista isn't enough anymore, need more volume/more filteration.
I really like percs in a bong however I'm afraid it'll be extremely hard to clean...

Also what would be the difference between a straight tube with an inline ashcatcher VS a inline bong?

The thing is I'm looking for a at least 50cm (20") >50mm diameter inline tube...
Also I'm guessing the more perc and the harder it is to clean.

Also any comments on these bongs?:
Flaming skull Inline 4-arm perc
Vertigo Glass Stemless Inline Tube
Syn Glass Tall Shower Head - Rasta
Migrant Triple Disk Stemless
Manifest Glass Clear Single Perc
Syn Glass Inline Tube
Manifest Glass Clear Stemless Double Perc
RooR Tech Straight Barrel Perc

Thanks a lot!

honestly, I have a toro, spent 900 on it. I love it, its a pain to clean unless you get some grundge off (bong cleaner) or something. I have recently went back to a straight pipe because the toro has more water drag against your lungs. It gets shitty after a while, I have asthma and the drag actually made my lungs start hurting after a while using the toro. And honestly, its a different high almost. I prefer straight tubes now, they seem to get along better with me. If you get something perc'd get a honey comb style diffuser or the shower heads pull nice and make lots of bubbles. Just my personal opinion.

Percs are great and really do assist in cooling the smoke by breaking it into tiny bubbles. They are worth the extra money for how smooth your smoking experience will be. I say perc it.

They do make the hits way smoother, but like I said, personal preference, I like less resistance. But that toro is a beaut.

What do you mean by resistance?
I'm mostly interested in the inline bongs since they seem easier to clean...however finding a big inline seems pretty hard :(
Also how different would it be to just buy a straight tube and a inline ashcatcher?

I'm just thinking that having multiple smaller pieces will be easier to clean...so a straight tube + a wet inline ashcatcher...all in all I'm guessing it would be about the same as a perc bong? And still be easier to clean

yeah its just your preference if you want a badass inline ashcatcher you can detach in case you ever just want the straight tube, or get the two tier perc'd out shower head piece.

Percs are amazing. Going from a regular bong to a perc there is a RATHER noticeable difference. I picked up a 5 arm tree perc for $40 at a local smoke shop. 3 diffusers per arm. Also have diffusers in my stem. Also allows for bigger hits now as its double chamber ;) Now I say fuck anything else lol.
