Quantum doubles seem very nicely made and race proven! Depends on budget.
My old radical had the double adjustable protechs from procomp and it handled pretty good

I have Nitrons on my live-axle Caterham. I really rate them.

I know he's had good results with the Penskes this year, but they make the Quantum and Nitron dampers look pretty Locost!

He 3 way nitrons simon used to have in his car were very expensive, the double adjustable quantum are expensive but not like Penske!
A lot of the single seaters, especially the oms run the penskes. Others run koni.
I'd opt against any of these if it's a road car as these are all a high spec race quality damper. Protechs would probably be my choice
After this season I'm going to look at upgrading the single adjustable Avos I currently have
