Ok, look, the Titan LX Supreme is a super reg. I'm biased, I have 2, and it was the second best in the Aqua line when I bought it. Might still be. Taken them everywhere in the last 3 yrs an never a hiccup - all kids of water. And I've not serviced them yet (I do take care of my stuff religiously tho), eventhough I have the certs to do so.
But it is true, unlike in the '70s and 80's where there was bad gear, good gear, and stupendous gear, now all new gear is at least excellent in comparison to those days. And pretty robust even in the hands of a schmuck with a lawyer.
I'm just saying as your first reg, you ought to make sure that you have your butt covered, and to me that means buying from an authorized distributor that you can walk in and talk to face to face - ask all the questions, and get all the answers. Authorized answers from the horses mouth.
Now all you smarty-pants gray beards, why is that such bad advice to a new diver on this website?
