If you are looking at the MP650 or the AquaXtreme variant I would also take a look at the PanWorld 30PX at PremiumAquatics.com PanWorld 30PX
It has the nearly the same specs as the 650 or AE, is touted as being 'better than Iwaki' (I assume because they are supposed to be slightly more quiet than the Iwakis). It has the same head but puts out nearly 50% more flow.
PanWorld and Blueline are the same pump. This is the company started by an ex-engineer from Iwaki. On both Marine Depot and Premium Aquatics they state they match the Iwaki's for peformance and dependability yet are slightly more quiet. Cant complain about that or the price. The biggest downside is the larger size by comparision to the 650s and variants. This could also be a reason not to buy it. Still its a pretty sweet pump.
