You have the previous model S600 second stage, which has the same delivery rate of gas as the the new model. Only outward cosmetic changes differentiate the two. The MK25 has remained unchanged since it's inception in the mid 2000's. There is absolutely no reason not to like this set-up. It has been the best selling upper-end regulator combination for nearly a decade.
Here is a look at the current MK25/S600 combo on SP's website...

The MK25 is the "previous" release( the current has round holes and a rounded cap.
Absolutely worth keeping

Yep. The previous version. Still a great regulator & just as easily serviced at the newest model. Most of the changes are only cosmetic. I have 6 of those types out of 9 that I own. I notice no real difference in work of breathing or functionality between the body styles. The biggest differences in the MK25 is the caps, shinier chrome & a little difference in body style. The newest S600's have metal barrells inside, where the older ones have plastic. The odler ones can be retrofitted, if needed. I retrofitted mine because I do a lot of cold water diving.

this is a older version of this kit.
the difference is the metal barrel in the second stage.only present in the current set.
the mk25af is the same as the current one ,only minor exterior changes...that´s all
performance is very good with your setup...for colder waters the new s600 is better ,but that way you would not use a mk25....
