Sorry for the brief description. Truthfully as to exactly which aspect of technical diving, I am unsure. I wanted a dual tank system with quality components that I could also run side mounts off of. Other then the computer the reg/bc is the most costly and for good reason. I was just trying to see what general opinion was.
Apeks XTX50s for the regs and the WTX6 or 6R (if you're not using a drysuit).
However I am extremely biased
EDIT: Forgot BP. Aluminium BP if you're diving a wetsuit, Steel if not.
As for harnesses. I've got a 1-piece, and to be honest they aren't all they're cracked up to be. Honestly I'd recommend a harness with clips. As soon as this one goes I'm moving back to harness with releases.
