I think that is the most basic of answers. If you have lots of money, go with the Radion. Unless all your furniture is white and you want things to match. Then go with the white model of SOL.
I don't think a different thread is going to produce any different answers.

Both are great lights, each appealing to slightly different markets. It doesn't sound like you're worried about money, and if color isn't an issue, go with the Radion.

Alright, thanks for the info guys. Will two Radion's suffice in terms of coverage? How high should I mount them above the tank?

2 should do just fine. I'd start at 8" and adjust to suit...

Alright, here's hoping I won't regret this $1600 dollar decision. Any last minute input before I pull the trigger tomorrow?
