Looking for some opinions - I currently have a poseidon ps3 and an iwaki 40rlt pulling from 1" inlets from my 55 gal basement sump and feeding 3/4" outlets for a 125 on the first floor. The bearings are starting to finally go on the iwaki and I was never really happy with how the poseidon flowed at the head it is under. I went with the dual pumps for redundant safety reasons but I'm now thinking of swapping both out and using a reeflo wahoo. As silly as it may seem, I'm really curious as to how noisy the wahoo is - the Iwaki could wake the dead before the bearings started going, but of course the poseidon is silent. Just curious what others think.

Thanks
