I have ran quantums and lumis'
both are good.
My quantums will NOT fire mh conversion bulbs (not sure if they are even supposed to on 600's but I have never had one actually work lol)
I use my quantums for FLOWER though so I don't really care that MH isn't the 600's friend. Now the 1k quantums fire the 1k hps and 1k mh no problem so odds are it is the 600's issue and maybe the digilux 600 TRUE mh bulb will work on the 6000.
There are knockoffs of the quantum on ebay that I LOVE. I found them through carbonscrubber.com I believe and they were through htgsupply or something like that I believe. They have cheap 600's and 1000's on auction that you can get SUPER cheap including a nice light cord.
My favorite running ballast so far is the quantums though. They are quiet BUT have a fan which I think lumis are realizing with their new "add a fan" thing for their ballasts LOL. I liked the fit and finish fo my quantums BUT I haven't had the so called knock offs skip a beat ONCE.
I would try THEM ALL because people need to stop with the ford/chevy mentality with these things and actually TRY THEM FOR YOURSELVES and find out what YOU like.
