the speedwave dc does come with a controller for changing speeds, but of course does not have anything like the vortech. I use a Jabao wp40 wavemaker that is pretty well a Chinese knockoff of the Vortech MP series and comes with a controller that does the same thing, it works pretty well, and you can find them for around $100, or even less for the wp25.

I'm looking to create random flow patterns on a closed loop system (separate from my return) I'm using a SpeedWave right now on a closed loop but would like to have similar "pulsing" like that achieved with WP40, Mp40,etc.. Without having a pump in the tank.

KrazyKuch: I've been searching RC as well but that forum is so huge that searches take days! I would love to use my spare Vortech controller, just a lot more wires than a SpeedWave pump. I'm sure a lot of them can be eliminated but I need to study how they actually operate.
