I like my Royals, DA's and Mistral's. My Snark III Silver is a great breather and has a great look to it, but my current favorite is my DivAir Model B.

My hands-down DH favorite is the downstream Voit 50 Fathom model. While I find the painted versions the most eye appealing, I typically dive with either a chrome version or a faux Blue 50 Fathom.

For deep dives, or when diving dry, I prefer my new Voit Navy Phoenix. Having a reg that offers a cracking effort of 0.8" no matter what the cylinder pressure is awesome!

The original Voit/Swimaster MR-12 with the "squared-off" first stage is my favorite single hose of all time.

U.S. Divers mistral....hands down. I feel like Captain Cousteau every single time I see those yellow hoses. It was my first, and still my favorite double hose.
