I'm considering using one of these pumps on my MRC1 skimmer, the flow is 1440GPH against the recommended pumps listed MAG 12 1200 GPH , SEN 900 900 gph, Pan World 50PX 590gph or 100PX 790gph. My thinking is that being I have the skimmer in the sump this would alleviate my back pressure issue with my current pump. Does anyone see any problems using this pump, pro's con's, I don't want to spend the $300 on this pump and find out it won't work for my application. Also does anyone have experience with these pumps for noise issues, it will be placed under my stand in the living room.

Is that a pressure rated pump? If it isn't I would recommend looking into a pressure rated one. You will get the best performance out of the beckett using a pressure pump.
I can say that I love the Sequence pump I have now, I only use it for my return pump though. MDM has great customer service as well.
I have an Iwaki 70 running my MRC (2 Becketts)
