I am trying to decided between the Transpac and the HTS. I am wanting to know the pros, cons, and your opinion about each.
 
I've never used the Hollis, but I do love my Transpac. Quickly adjustable. Highly configurable. You can rig it for double-tank diving, single tank diving, sidemount tanks diving, rebreather diving. The design of the harness is such that if you have to lug that full rig over long distances, the weight distribution is more like a mountaineering backpack than a BC.

It's a jack-of-all-trades BC but the downside is that it's a master of none. With double-tank diving, it doesn't provide for the stability of a hard backplate.
 
I love my Dive Rite Transpac, it is an awesome harness that can handle Sidemount, Rebreathers, Doubles, and Single tank diving, it is (IMO) very durable, the only problem I have had with it was that it can be a little difficult, and confusing to adjust at first, but other than that I would Highly reccomend getting it...
