[QUOTE="Junior00, post: 16390397, member: 30475"] Up to you, it would probably serve your needs well. I looked at the specs between the two, the IR provides .4cfm more (rated) at 90psi but also runs at a slightly higher speed. The compressor is less efficient and has a different motor. Between the two, the Quincy is more industrial oriented. Service life is ~3x on the Quincy, and I know the Baldor motor is a better unit than the Emerson's unless IR started using a different motor. I'm willing to bet that 60gal would outperform the IR and be quieter while doing it. That is where your price difference comes from. I have 5 duplex IRs here at work and we haven't been super impressed, have had to replace 3 motors between them among other issues. I've got a several old Quincy, SB, and a Curtis that are 20+ years old and still perform better. [/QUOTE]
