I'm desperately in need of new dust collection and despite all the buzz about the harvey I really don't know that I'm sold on it. Noise is of consideration for me, but I'm always wearing hearing protection in the shop anyway, so 72 for harvey vs 78 decibels for powermatic isn't a big deal to me. The powermatic has higher HP, 3 vs 2. Higher CFM 1500 vs 1100. Larger canister, 63 gallons vs 32.
Anyone have any major reasons to consider the harvey over the powermatic in this situation?
