Default What are the quietest inline pumps?

Just curious on which brand of inline pumps around 1200 gph you think are the quietest.


Thanks

Jim

The quietest pump is probably the CSL T4.

T4's are quiet, but they run hot

Of all the pumps that I've heard in operation... you can't go wrong with any of those T-"x" (2, 3, 4) pumps (I think they're called Poseidons now), bluelines or ampmasters.

If you ask me,

Sequence blows all of the competition out of the water.

But the smallest is rated at 3600 gph...if you can divert some flow or feed a skimmer or something, you would have twice the pump for the same noise and power consumption.

Sequence is the op pump if you need high flow.
