Campag wheel choice to £400 (ish)

Any opinions on the below or other suggestions please
Easton EA90SL £400 in a few places, like the extra spokes over the SLXs, easily replaceable spokes and I've had some Easton Ascent II before which were nice wheels
Campag Zonda £325 at Parkers, similar weight, nice fancy spoke pattern and which compliment the Chorus nicely but I get the impression the ride is a bit harder than the Eastons
Don't like Fulcrums as they're a bit on the noisy side and a bit pricey compared to the other 2.
Mavics ? Just not floating my boat really unless someone has a good reason why I should.
Are there any I'm missing ?
Cheers

Can't speak for the others but I've had a set of Zondas for about 6 yrs now.
Never had a problem. Still true.0 -
I'm really pleased with my Campag Neutrons. Faily light and have a good reputation for being strong.0

at the cheaper end are Hope Hoops (Pro3 on Open Pro) and Pro-Lite Braccianos
or obviously a handbuilt set, such as Ambrosio Excellights on Record/Royce/PMP etc.Facts are meaningless, you can use facts to prove anything that's remotely true! - Homer0 -
Handbuilt.
Or if you really want factory built then Neutron's. Better than Zonda's.It’s the most beautiful sport in the world but it’s governed by ***ts who have turned it into a crock of ****.0 -

Thanks guys
Gone with the Easton EA90 SLs, should be arriving tomorrow, along with the frame, chorus came today.
Good experience with Eastons before, right money and they'll look good too !
