Shop the reputable brands and take the best deal. Unless you are in an extremely critical sound sensitive environment, any of the good ones will serve your purpose.

I sort of doubt your idea of “Best” is the same as everyone else.
I doubt anyone has actual experience with all moderators.
people have an opinion on the ones they have tried, but that won’t be very useful.
Criteria?
lightest weight?
Quietest?
appearance?
Quality?
value?
etc......
I personally lean towards DonnyFl price is reasonable, and the quality is great! But again that’s just my opinion.

Or you can take a look at actual comparison tests of 20 different moderators here, including metered dB readings, internal volume, weight and importantly, cost:

Look on this forum for past topics on the subject , I have been looking at some past topics on other questions I have, and got a ton of good information. The people here are real good at helping us newer folk. I would look at Donny FL for a moderator , He is awesome in responding and giving great recommendations to your needs. I got the sumo for my Cayden and it does a great job in the shhh department ..
