Well the apeks set was the first reg set I ever bought, it breathes wonderful I love diving it but have always had problems with it leaking a small bit, I have a freind who uses apeks regs and had the same issues even after having them serviced. It always seems to have a little bit of air coming through the second stage when im not inhaling. Serviced it several times always starts doing the same thing. So i decided to use the scubapro for my double set, they work great.
