I am looking at buying a new reg, the following are the choices I have narrowed the field to
-Mares Abyss 05
-Atomic Z1
-Scubapro MK25/R390
And no the unusual Scubapro pair is not a typo. The LDS guy said they got a deal and wanted to make an inexpensive MK25 setup. He also claimed most of the performance came from the first stage, which I wouldn't mind some comments on if that is true...
I don't think I could go wrong with a MK25 1st, but would it be wasted on a R390 2nd? I also don't like Scubapro on account of their product shipping policies. All three options would be a local purchase, so it's just a philosophical difference.
I think I am leaning towards the Abyss. Anyway, all three are about the same price for me, so if anyone would like add their opinions, I would appreciate it.
