Greg,

Y-valves only come in yoke, not DIN as far as I know.  You can get DIN H
valves or yoke y-valves.  There are other valves available as well that
offer first stage redundancy, but they aren't very popular and I don't know
them off hand.

I think www.northeastscubasupply.com  has H valves for sale.

Let me give you a suggestion that may save you some money.  If your dive
really warrants first stage redundancy, you are likely safer to buy doubles.
If your dive doesn't require first stage redundancy, why not just use an 80
with a K valve?  If you are planning on using a Y valve as training wheels
for doubles, I'd suggest just going right to doubles.  If you're planning on
using it for recreational dives, you don't need the redundancy, so just use
an 80 with a k valve.

Just a suggestion,
ss
