I have been running a quiet one 4000 for awhile now, 16 months or so. Very quiet and reliable. I would not hesitate to buy one. A lot of good being said about the Mag pumps as well. I just picked up a Mag pump (thanks Rich) have yet to hook it up but when I get the time, I will let you know if there is much of a sound difference etc.

Mag pumps also use more electricity I think.
