Coloplast vs AMS
Re: Coloplast vs AMS
I'd think it's because they are both dynamic objects fitted inside a dynamic organ. Your penis tissue is only capable of stretching so much, regardless of the difference between the initial starting size of the cylinders. The AMS does get larger in circumference with inflation, as does the Titan. Both devices inside the same penis would pressure the the tissue to expand in the same way, so in practice there wouldn't be much of a difference in size of the functional erection. Just my guess.

That is what I really do not understand. If comparing cylinder’s thickness between Titan and AMS it is like a pencil vs. a dry eraser marker. Yet somehow, the penis size is “the same”…
AMS expands to 18mm and Titan to 21-22mm I believe so both are more than adequate to fill the normal size space in the corpora cavernosum in penis sizes within a couple of standard deviations of average. If you are starting out with s penis circumference greater than 5.5 inches or more then maybe the extra capacity to expand would make the Titan necessary. The extra stiffness potentially makes the Titan better for severe Peyronies with curvature. And the Titans come in longer lengths again for those outside the usual length penises. The normal size and shape penis will likely fine with both.

Re: Coloplast vs AMS
All of these posts are at least several years old. Please share if you have more recent experience with the subject of this comparison. Thanks!
Implanted 5/6/20 by Dr. Jesse Mills at UCLA; AMS 700 LGX 18 cm w/2 cm RTEs. I'm 76 & fit but had ED for 20 years. Pills/injections ultimately failed, including 3 ER trips for Priapism; Shockwave & embryonic stem cell therapies didn't help either.
Re: Coloplast vs AMS
I have the Titan Touch 24cm (latest as of this post)
The Titan cylinder walls themselves are really rigid
If your concern is about feeling natural (soft or hard) Titan is not right for you

Re: Coloplast vs AMS
As far as what I have read, the Titan is more rigid and gives girth, whereas the AMS is length.
I, myself, am going for both, so I am going with Titan. It is sturdier.

The Titan cylinder walls themselves are super rigid, f'ing awful actually, I'm hoping they get softer with time but doesn't sound like it will from talking with my doctor, so I'm guessing you'll have to get used to it. I'd absolutely recommend against Titan and for ams unless you have no other choice than Titan due to size (some of the AMS models can be ordered in 24cm as a custom order)
Most of my partners have noticed the implant immediately due to the rigidness of the Titan cylinders no matter if they are deflated or inflated, I definitely made the wrong choice in implant model
If you are even the least bit concerned about feeling natural (soft or hard) Titan is not right for you
That is your experience, but if you say that is simply the objective truth for all Titan cylinders in every human dick, then you're simply wrong. Why?
Well, for starters, there is no real difference between the two brands in scientific research on patient satisfaction. If your case was normal, it would be.
This is supported on this site, where there seems to be no real difference between satisfaction with the brands either.
Second, I am living proof of that what you say is not the universal truth.
My flaccid is as soft and pliable as I would ever need it to be. Nobody has ever felt the cylinders in my dick. Except myself when taking a piss. And they do for sure get a lot more soft by time.
I will not say, simply becayse I can't, which brand is the best. Nobody can. Everybody is biased. Almost everybody (you being one exception) will say their brand is the best. But how do they know since they didn't ever have the other brand? Perhaps they would have been even more satisfied with the other one? And those unhappy with their choice would maybe have been even more miserable with the other brand?
What seems to be the generally accepted facts is:
A Titan is harder when inflated.
An AMS is softer when deflated.
An AMS shrinks when deflated and hence gives a larger and more natural difference between erect and flaccid length. This is good for some - who don't want a large flaccid - and bad for those who want a large flaccid.
There also seem to be an advantage for Titan when it comes to fixing PD.
Maybe there is also an advantage for small dicks to get an AMS, since the mass of their small dicks won't weigh down the stiffer Titans enough to get a good hang of the flaccid.
And hence, there is maybe an advantage for large, girthy dicks to have a Titan, since they will risk losing girth and get a less rigid erection with an AMS.
But whether this is the truth in every case, who knows.
There are also plenty of AMS guys saying their hardness is more than enough, as well as there are Titan guys saying their flaccids are perfectly pliable and lose hanging.
So I think in the end it is not the brand that is most important. Far from it.
It is your doc doing a good job that overshadows all else in the quest of getting good results.
Henc, pick a good doc...

Re: Coloplast vs AMS
still say the titan just doesn't feel natural, especially not inflated

I'll stand by my statement, the Titan may feel "good enough" for you and you keep haggling me in this point, I heard you the first time please stop contradicting me every time I bring it up. Feeling good enough is not the same as feeling natural, Im single and don't want partners to be able to notice it, and they do, almost every time
The simple fact is it does not feel normal, very much so when deflated, and most of my partners can feel something is unnatural right away when hard too, I'm really unhappy with the Titan cylinders and would continue to point people away from the Titan unless absolutely necessary because of size
It does not feel good enough. It feels great.
Well, if I am haggling anybody, then so are you since you keep repeating this over and over again. Which is ok, but then don’t complain if every time you make your point someone makes his different point.
Apparently you did get shitty results for some reason, and I feel sorry for anyone who does.
But you can’t say everybody got what you did.
Nobody has ever felt my cylinders.

merrix: "Find a a world class surgeon", stuck in my mind since I read your journal. Thank you merrix!
66 y old. Dr. Eid my choice as a world class surgeon. Implanted coloplast titan on 01/09/2020 after trying everything. Viagra worked very well, with the usual side effects, for 10 years. Past 7 years proved to be a disaster.
