I use the spray bar for my filstar xp3, but I keep the water level high enough to cover it so there is no noise. I have no problems. Anyhoo.

Well, if the water output is slow, you should clean the filter. I do a monthly clean. I haven't had any problems with the spraybar attachment slowing down very much, though it's probably slightly slower after 30 days. Maybe there's a crack or an air leak in yours that is causing the problem too.

Did your filter not come out with two options for attachments? I have the spray bar and nozzle. I prefer the spray bar. Cheers!
