LED Light Bulbs

In search of the ultimate replacement for the bread and butter 60 watt incandescent light bulb I've tried TCP, Feit, GE, Philips and Ecosmart LED's. I believe that Cree has them beat with this LINK
While the others are all good I prefer the brightness and color of the Cree. Plus, at $2.50 / bulb you can't beat their 10 year warranty.
What you got?

I like the Walmart Great Value non-dimmable bulbs. They're the only A19's I have that don't buzz, and the color is surprisingly good. All the cheap Philips bulbs I bought at Home Depot buzz. I hate them. The only Cree I owned buzzed. In fact, I replaced the Cree and several of the Philips with the Walmarks cheapies.

I haven't tried many, but I like the Feit. They are instant on, nice color. I first bought their 4ft shop lights from Costco for the garage and attic, which made me try their A19s.

Ironically my bulbs from Walmart buzz and others don't. I wonder if it depends on the fixture they are in.

Do you have dimmable or non-dimmable bulbs? What about the fixtures? My buzzers are all dimmables on non-dimmable sockets.

That may be it. I have nondimmable fixtures.
Edit: non dimming bulbs and they still buzz

Had an electrician at the house Friday and asked him about LED bulbs. He said he recommends hyperikon. Said he uses them all the time with no buzzing.
Haven't tried them yet, but i'll buy some to see if they work soon.

I replaced 4 fluorescents with these. Ended up changing every bulb in my store. Dramatic difference.

I second the Wal-Mart bulbs.
I bought some generic brand off Amazon for my e12 bulbs
