The CDX5 is a good first stage. Very reliable. The Omega is good 2nd but it's one of those things that people either really like or don't. I have a Poseidon with the side exhaust and I like it. The Omega is the same basic idea but much smaller and lighter. Try one and see if it works for you. They are good as far as performance but the internal design is very different from a traditional 2nd stage and some people can't get used to it.

Actually, the Oceanic Zeta uses the same kind of servo valve, just has a conventional exhaust instead of side. The servo valve regs, like the Zeta, Poseidon, etc can really put out a lot of air.

I like it, I did notice some bubbles but I was in Heavy surge and moving in and out of
rocks & reef . I couldn't help but buy one at $279.99 on line and authorizied Dealer.
Everyone stop's and looks at it , No problem with breathing , not wet, I was concerned
that it would be to sensitive and force feed me air, never happened. I like everything
about it . All I was looking for was a 1st stage with 2 high pressure ports ,for my Computer Transmiter and to run a SPG , Well I got that and a great 2nd stage.
