What is the difference between the two? They both seem to be stainless steel, but the fat beams appear to be wound under pressure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The59Sound Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The Hi-Beams are brighter and sound slightly scooped, the Fat Beams are less bright but have slightly more mids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
