Sequence or AmpMaster Pump

[Bluewatercandy]

I am in the market for a new closed loop pump and am wondering which of these is the most reliable and the quietest? I know with the AmpMaster you need to get the heavy duty reverse marine seal to avoid leaks.
Which would you get if money were not an issue?

Either are great pumps, I had a few complaints about changing the seals & yes you probably will change those out more then Sequence but sequence to me puts in a little more heat because of the seal they use is stainless which transfers heat better than what the amp master uses, so you have a trade off there, they both are very conservative on power & quite. Now sequence makes the Dart that is smaller I use the 4200 which is only a larger impeller but is dead silent, lots of flow & no heat issues but your limited by large 2" plumbing vrs the larger pumps 1 1/2" & higher flow rates, another trade off. So with that said you have one extra option with the dart, smaller pump.

I am also curious as to what people think of these pumps? I am looking at a Sequence Snapper or Dart for my future 75g build.
