A vote for the m4's here mate but they can be fiddly to bleed and are noisy (squeel alot)
Mine are quite old now though so not sure how much better the new m4's are?!
Hope this helps,
Scott
Oh go for sintered pads too for longevity and make sure you bed them in properly"If i was a slug i don't think i could handle it, i'd just throw myself in the salt pot" -Karl pilkington

i've had both, currently using M4's.
Honestly, the Tech M4's are just ace. I've not had any noise issues with mine at all, even when a bit wet.
Get them, you won't be disappointed.
The new M4's have been massively redesigned, have a google around, there's quite a lot of info on them
As for bleeding, the Hope website has video guides to help you specifically set up, service and bleed the M4's. Very helpful.0
