ppatrick:Im thinking about buying my own BC and regulator. I went to a few LDS in my area and narrowed it down to ScubaPro KnightHawk with MK25S600 and AquaLung SeaQuest Malibu with Titan LX. Their prices are pretty close but I dont know about their quality. ScubaPro seems to use better quality materials. However the AquaLung products seem to require less maintenance (one of the AquaLung salespersons told me that the AquaLung regulator needs to be inspected only every other year). That could save me hundreds of dollars over the long run.
Im hesitating and dont know which one to go with. If you ever used any ScubaPro or AquaLung products, please share your opinions. I would like to know if youre impressed (or dislike) them.

Scubapro's free parts for life program also differs in that you can rehabilitate the warranty on an SP reg if you take a few years off from diving. The process requires you to pay for the parts on the first service after the lapse, but you then get reinstated and parts are again free for subsequent annual services. /snip
