I'm looking to buy my first regulator, and this is what I've come up with:
Scubapro MK25 first stage
Scubapro S550 second
Scubapro R380 octopus
Total cost is something like $550. (For those curious, it's from an LDS.)
Anyone else have this same setup? I've read good things about all 3 parts on this board before and tried most of it before, so I'm imagining the combination will serve me (sort of new diver...20 dives) well. Others have mentioned the S600, but I didn't know whether it's worth it to spend the extra $100, when the S550 would be totally OK. Comments?
Incidentally, I'm looking to add a computer to the mix as well...probably a Suunto Cobra console. Sadly, since it all costs so much, gear purchases will be spread over a number of months, so the Cobra will likely be next month...
