 Re: Echo or rnt
Definitely echo. Ive had the cocabola/poly timber call around my neck for years. Love it.

 Re: Echo or rnt
Go to a store and blow them both.
I blew a bunch of calls in Mack's and walked out with an Echo XLT one time.
I also own a bunch of RNT calls & my go to is a RNT short barrel in Bois d arc.

 Re: Echo or rnt
I am an RNT fan but have a few buddies blow echo, suggest taking several calls for a drive. I bought my last RNT at the shop and blew 9 of the same call and each had a slightly different sound and feel. Give the old style and micro hen a roll. In the timber calls cocbolo or wood seems to be more ducky IMO.

 Re: Echo or rnt
I've got an acrylic echo DRT and a cocobolo RNT timbre and I like them both, but in the timber I'm on that RNT. I like a wood call in the woods, I like the softer tone and you can still get loud enough on it to get their attention. I use acrylics for open water...the DRT acrylic is good for finishing em in open water, not as loud as my open water acrylic.

 Re: Echo or rnt
Its all in your voice and how you operate a call. Ive got a friend that makes a Zink call of his sound amazing, and when I pick it up, I cant make it sound good to save my life.

 Re: Echo or rnt
i know hobo wasnt in the topic, but i do have both the ICU2 and Prime Meat, main reason i have the "hobo" models is bc i got a killer deal on them. Back to main, i like Echo over Rnt
