Best cooling 120mm fans?

We've all seen threads about the quietest fans. I'm looking for the best performers. Any suggestions? Possibly looking to change out the fans on the Antec P180 I have.
 
Naaah, that Delta up there is a stone wimp - here's whatcha need!

Twice as big, dual motors - gotta be at least twice as geek'O'licious. Riiiight? 😉

But now to return to sanity, the Sanyo Denki 120x38s that petrastechshop.com sells for $12. each or $11. each for two and up are the way to go. If you need quiet, well at 7V or below you've got it. Want to suck in your case's cheeks like a fashion model? Just crank her up full. And the character of its sound isn't really annoying even at full cry. Those aren't the best for cooling a stack of HDDs, for that you need a fan with a smaller hub for the smallest possible hot spot. The Jamicons at the link in my sig would be better for that. The S-D makes a great exhaust or WC radiator fan.
