suphew Posted July 6, 2006 Report Share Posted July 6, 2006 I have two berlin classic's, just stopped using them, PM me if your interested in buying one cheap. I dont know how well the 'turbo' models work, there dont seem to be many about, the classic's need a large pump (far larger then the spec the suggests) I used a luguna 7, and it worked well, I had to restrict the air a lot to stop it foaming to much. The other I ran off a king 4 pump which was still over the rating but was just big enough IMO. They are pretty old tech now, needle wheel skimmers are easier but worked fine for me for a few years, I only upgraded because I had another use for the luguna 7 and a bargin needle wheel skimmer came up.
