As others said before, basically all NIM suppliers deliver good quality. I
would make a choice based on technical specs only and not on the name
printed on the front.
A slightly off-topic remark though: IMHO Prices for NIM modules are
exorbitant, it's probably the most expensive way to buy electronics. I find
that NIM module pricing is usually in no way related to the costs of the
electronics inside, which means that I try to avoid NIM based electronics
whenever this is possible.
