Best DC return Pump

[gcarroll]

Are there any noise tests with the Abyzz?

Not to my knowledge. It would be cool if someone wanted to conduct the test. Do you have the capabilities? I know you live in So Cal as do I.

Wow! After seeing that video the Vectra is the way to go.

I have home audio calibration equipment like a calibrated condenser mic and pc setup but it's quite a convoluted setup just to measure spl haha.

Considering my background in car audio, i used to have an SPL meter. Of course that was a couple decades ago.

Vectra is hands down the best DC pump I've used ...... though, come to think of it, it's the only DC pump I've used :lol:

If you want a high end pump then go with the Abyzz.
The best bang for the buck then go with the Vectra.
Unfortunately the R/E sits in no man's land. It has a good motor block but the lack of an advanced controller makes it subpar. The Abyzz as well as the Vectra utilize a far more advanced controller which may provide many more benefits for your needs.

Hows the heat from Vectra L1?

Yes, how is the heat from any of these pumps?

My old dinosaur of a pump (gri 518 - 15 years old) is making a racket and it may be time to start pump shopping. Do any of these pumps have 1" input and .75" output?

The Vectra M1 is, using the supplied blue collar fittings.

Thanks

I just spent a few hours on the Vectra thread - it went from "these pumps are great" to loads of problem at about the 10 month mark.

Something to consider is that the offset of the inlet and outlet may not match what you currently have, so you may still need to get friendly with the PVC aisle at Lowes anyway.

A few people have had problems with the L1.
Haven't seen anything on the M1 yet.

Guilty of not reading the Vectra thread yet but, are the issues being addressed???
