Just wondering the difference between these as far as noise goes.

a MAC with a sine wave controller is noiseless. you won't hear the gears at all.
the bbs is super quiet as well.

MAC with Infineon controller does have a small electronic whine, most notable to me during acceleration.
Once you are at speed... either the whine is reduced, or the rush of air past ears masks it.
BBS02 is electronically nearly silent. Do hear some mechanical noise, but very minor.

Can you recommend a sine wave controller that would work with the MAC?

I have a MAC with a Kunteng sine-wave controller and it's pretty quiet but definitely not silent, though I don't know how it compares to the BBS02. Your best bet would probably be to find some youtube vids and listen for the motor.

man, i wish i could. i tried quite some controllers, but they ALL have issues. kelly works quite fine, but not perfectly nice.OptimusPrime said:
if you want to go cheap, maybe try powervelocity's controllers. didn't have a chance to test adaptto or sabvoton or phaserunner.
if you find one, please post back your results.

I can answer my own question now since I have them both. On hard acceleration they are about the same volume but each has a different quality. At slow cruise the BBS02 is quieter. At fast cruise you really don't hear much of either one compared to wind and tire noise.
