    Ok I literally just opened up my mp10 I got from aquacave.


    build quality high in the area of the motor and wet side.

    however there were two exceptions one the padding on the wet side was off a little.

    and the outlet cable didn't fit very well into the ac adapter.

    small problems I know but I expect none when I spend 250 dollars on a powerhead.


    Operation:
    I was pleasantly surprised with how quiet it ran. I can barely hear it with my face near it. Noise is a big concern with me, and it met my standards without even breaking in.

    I found setting the modes too complicated to figure out without the manual but pretty simple with it.

    The power works perfectly with my 12 gallon tank, any larger then a 20 gallon I would recommend getting the bigger version if you plan on it being the main power head.


    Disappointments from my lack of research:
    Wireless means it talks to other MP's wirelessly, there is no wireless remote for it.
