Best Component Hybrids?

Okay I searched, and surprisingly came up with nothing...

Who makes the best hybrid heads? Based on my very limited experience ( I don't play one, although I did just pick up a KZG from a ST'er ) I'd have to say Sonartec... but they're TU now. The KZG is cool, but it's a monster... I have smaller fairways.

I hit a friend's Golfsmith hybrid and it felt nice but heavier then most. :)

Godd results on the shot anyway. :)

Check out the Maltby KE4 hybrids.

MALTBY KE4 HYBRID WOOD HEADS

I checked those out in the store the other day, and they are on my list. Not for me, I'm looking to build a set of two, maybe three, as a gift.

Edit: Forgot to finish my point. I hit a 24* KE4 that was in the used rack at Golf Galaxy the other day, and to be honest, I sprayed it all over. Then I tried a 21* Sonartec MD they also had, and ripped it right down the middle 190y carry over and over. I know what I like in a hybrid, and it's a Sonartec, but this isn't for me, so I'm seeking wider opinion. Seems like you guys test drivers a lot more than hybrids ;)

It's ugly as sin, but I've got a 24* (stamped 26*) SMT Avocet hybrid that is one of the most forgiving clubs I've ever hit
I haven't tried any of their other stuff, and I know a lot of guys are not fans of the Company, but this is a pretty good design (assuming you don't throw up when you see it)

What's wrong with the company? I read some bad things about KZG, but nothing about SMT.

Other than their ugly clubs, that is ;)

Nickent started out as a component company, and their 3DX DC models can be found cheaply and reshafted easily.

I have a Wishon 785HF #3 hybrid that is one of my very favorite clubs. I just really hit well.

I use a Snake Eyes viper Tour that I put together. I like it a lot. I haven't seen anyone else with one but I think they're nice.

I have an irrational dislike of a few things, and two of them are clubs with goofy names, and cartoonish logos... so I won't be buying any Snake Eyes ( or any Integra SooooLoooongs ).
