Can anyone recommend a first stage that works well with the guardian mask? Looking for something very reliable and easy to service.
 
What do you have now? The CE Certification was done with Apex first stages. I use them as well and like them. It's recommended that you use a high performance, balanced first stage with the IP set at 135 psi.
 
I use mine with a Mares Abyss 22 - breathes very well and no problems.
 
Try to avoid high performance pistons, like Atomic, SP MK20, or Sherwood SR-1. I've heard the high flow rate translates to whistling over the comm.
 
Anyone ever try a Genesis GS2000 or a Hollis DC1?
 
Anyone know what the first stage is set at for an aqualung legend set? I'd love to get a first stage with an auto closure device to pair with my guardian
