For myself I plan on buying the Sunbeam because it has 6 channels rated at 30w per channel, which means you can controll two 12w fans per knob if you wanted to. This eliminates having to buy a second controller. Its simple and not to flashy.

The others are rated 7w and 12w per channel or something so I think if you are looking to get more power out of your fans than get the Sunbeam I think.

Vote for the Rheobus Extreme. It's able to handle 6 Ultra Kazes of mine so I like!

Only thing is it may be a bit too bright for some:

I've got a Rheobus Extreme and I love it. I especially like how it's able to handle up to 30W per channel.
