Metal Halide Pendants: So Many Options!

I need a metal halide pendant for my 24'' by 24'' by 24'' 60g SPS dominated cube. What will be the best for intensity and spread?

I would like a pendant compatible with a single-ended bulb also but other than that what are the recommendations?

Thanks everyone!

Get yourself a luminbright large pendant, i ran one over my 24" cube and loved the light spread! I use two of them on my 48" 120g.

My LFS let me test the Lumenbright and Lumenmax Elite, I liked the Elite more. I thought it had less of a spotlight effect and little bit of a better light spread.

In case you haven't found this, it compares Lumenbrite, LumenArc, Lumen Max and one other.
