If the price is right I would. First stages haven't changed since then and the second stages work pretty much the same. They even use the same service kits.
The TX40 doesn't have a WOB adjust. I've seen a third party knob for sale, even bought a couple. Although it really isn't needed.
 
I've got several Apeks 2nd stages (TX50, ATX40, XTX50), all of them connected to DS4 1st stages.I've used them for several years in various conditions (deep diving on air and trimix, cave diving). I can't say there's much difference while breathing them, so if the price's right, I'd go for the TX50.
