Thinking about getting a Klir Di-7

[fowler279]

I currently have a 150G with a 30G sump. It uses 7" filter socks and after measuring I am pretty confident that the Di-7 will fit with no issues. My question here is for those that use it, going from Socks to the Di-7 is there any more noise? The tank is in our bedroom and the sump has a cover over where the sock goes and I use a sock silencer to help out with the waterfall noise from the crashbox to the filter sock. About a day after I replace the sock its generally pretty quiet but have to replace the sock every 3 days. So just wondering since I have to remove the cover if the loudness of the water flowing into it will be worse or any better. Thanks

I guess it depends on your setup but I would assume it’s gunna be louder then your sock I do run them and I run socks and seems klir it water falls more sock seems to pool down from bottom middle

If the water level in that chamber is high it would make less noise
