+1 for Hope, running M4s on my Rumble.... lovely brakes!
Running Tech M4s here and although my only other discs were Hayes I have to say the levers on these are phenomenal. Tried a few combinations of the two adjusters while keeping the same lever reach and have found my ideal now. Great stopping power and superb feel.
Don't like the look of Avids to be honest, cheap looking and the ones I have tried cheap feeling as well.

Thanks for the info guys, especially those in the trade, it looks as though I'll be going with the Hopes.
I've also held in mind the conflicts that are reported with some shifters. I use Shimano XT and found the following handy document for removing the shifter windows. Not rocket science, but worth a glance before wielding a screwdriver and hammer at them. I didn't realise they came with spare covers!
