Pump replacement options

Currently running a Mag 7 in my 75 gal/20gal sump. I have had the pump for roughly 7 years, over the years ive cleaned it several times, replaced impeller to keep it going, but I believe its at the end of its line now.

I haven't used anything BUT Mag pumps in the past, since the tank is in the living room im looking for something that is a little more quiet. Suggestions?

edit to add - this is my return pump sitting directly under the tank (4 ft straight pipe)

Tunze Silence or Sicce Synchra are very quiet and strong and as an added bonus they use significantly less wattage than the Mag.
 
I replaced my mag 7 with a sicce syncra 3 I believe (may be 4, but I think it's a 3). The pump is dead silent and powerful, plus the flow is adjustable. HIGHLY recommend this pump! Can't talk long term yet, I've only had it 4 months
