Default Vortech powerhead

Who else has these? I quite frankly can't stand it. The glass on my tank is 5/8s and I have to keep this thing at the lowest setting or it sounds like a jet engine It is slightly better when I align the magnet however still really loud and within 10 minutes it slips down and is loud again so the rating on the glass thickness is crap. It is in an in wall tank and there are plenty of other things that should be louder than this but it is all you hear. It is not much good having a powerhead that is capable of doing 3000gph down to 300.

Basically put it is the worst $500 I spent for my tank. Go with a SEIO on a big tank.
