Default SRO xp3000 ?

Hi all, first off I want to say thanks for all the great advice in the last week or so. After much debate I have decided to order the super reef octopus xp3000. My tank upgrade is a 52x26x23 miracles tank with a 40G breeder sump. I was just about to order this from goreef after reading alot of amazing reviews on the product. Anyone own one or have comments before I pull the trigger ?
Thanks

I run a SRO3000 on my 120g and it's a ridiculously powerful skimmer. A little loud, slight restart issues with the bubble blaster pump, but it skims my tank very very well.

As for goreef, I have spent nearly 2k in that shop so far and always have amazing service and quick delivery. Would recommend them any day

Loud? I had heard these run quiet ?
What kind of restart issues ?

I believe the re start issues were resolved... Should be more info in google... Think it had something to do with the volute or the impeller build quality.

Skimmer got here today and to say this thing is a BEAST would be an understatement. It's going to run on my 75 for the next week or two as I sold my old deltec. Prob won't see great results on my 75 but it will break it in so it's ready when I start assembling my new setup.
