Replacing my MP10

[Scubareefman]

ok guys I need some help selecting a replacement for a MP10. Its become super loud seemingly over night and this might be a good time to start a upgrade or move to a different brand.

My budget range is about $350 and I do already own a wave controller but I would prefer if possible not using it if possible.

Thanks as always, Tom

Have you tried tweeking the mp10 any?

You also might be able to buy a wet side and fix your problem.

yep

yep

Have you tried tweeking the mp10 any?

I replaced the wet side about 4 months ago, the noise is coming from the motor, it sounds like the bearings are not spinning correctly. I cleaned it up this afternoon and its still really making a grinding sound. I took it out and have a pair of super cheap power-heads doing the job ATM but they take up a considerable amount of space and are adding about .3 to the temp from what I can tell.

I would maybe call vortech and see about a repair or replacement from them. Theyre really good on customer service. Otherwise with your budget you could get another mp10 or two,an MP40 or a gyre or something.
