    I'll find out soon, I'm tearing apart my stand to install it.

    It worked for the 25 seconds it was plugged in.

    So after playing with the new unit and the old unit side by side I feel there is definitely an issue with the dry side. The new dry side you can barley hear running at 100% vs the old Dry side I could hear from across the apartment.

    Yeah, I have no noise complaints even on my 60s, but my 3 mp10s are dead silent.

    I honestly feel they think I'm trying to "screw" them, that's why they are stone walling me.

    When someone says "We have already sent you enough stuff, you need to now ship it in" kinda hints at that.

    I can hear my mp10 from upstairs in the kitchen when my tank is at the bottom of the stairs in the basement. The kitchen is at the top of the stairs


    I have pretty good hearing though.

    Update!

    So I finally got the ability to test my new wet side.... BAD! The new wet side makes a weird wishy washy noise and clicks. I took it apart and looked it over, I can't seem to find anything wrong, so I tried my old wet side and silent. So I called and vented my frustration and I quit!

    Not happy, but nothing I can do but send it in and have them fix it.
