Super quiet skimmer and return pump

[1bigfish]

I would sure like to get a rd3 or abyzz return pump but they are pretty pricy.
That's why I was looking at the ecotech vectra m1.
Is anyone using the ecotech m1 pump?
Or the quantum 160 skimmer?

I have a buddy with the ecotech pump and he's super happy with it. I don't know anyone with the quantum skimmer though.

I've use the Sicce Syncra 4.0 for my return pump and it's super quiet. I can't hear it at all. Before that I used the Eheim 1262 and it was just as quiet but it had a slightly bigger foot print.
