I would move that inverter out of the stand, away from water.

I thought those red dragon pumps are supposed to be silent?

Well there's a lot of pressure riding on you, that BK better outskim all the cheaper ones here, LOL.

I bet the needle wheel is not too happy spinning 20% faster.

Don't listen to these haters. Keep us posted.

Didn't anyone guide him towards a BM? Cheaper, proven to be better than BK and best of all, NO RED DRAGON. I agree with Pierce. 2 out of 5 people I know with Red Dragons have had failures. That is worse than the failure rate of RIO. I can't see it doing well running 20% faster.

Fred, i'm not hating. Im just asking cuz i thought they were supposed to be silent, at least that was part of the selling point. That's all.

fritz · 04-10-2007, 12:48 PM

listen most expensive = best always. That's all anyone needs to know.

Seriously as a fan of "don't believe the hype" I'm really interested in how this does compared to a BM. BMs have had reliability issues in the past and I'm very curious to see how this performs. As Cali mentioned the extra speed may be a factor. In any event I too thought they were silent.

PLEASE KEEP US POSTED.
