Is Gelid SpeedTouch 6 any good? Or is there anything better?

For the price, I don't think you will find anything nicer. Has anyone seen any reviews?
 
I don't care about the price. They are all cheap anyway. I can't find any that support more than 6 chnl. But I never heard of Gelid

no review
 
Channel number isn't as critical as it seems at first. I'm guessing you are wanting to avoid using splitter cables based on some other recent posts. I've moved to using splitter PCBs:

The thing to do is use say 5 fans per channel and organize each channel with a splitter pcb like this. They make pcbs with 3-10 terminals each and you can always use 3 pin fan connectors on pwm 4 pin terminals. The 4th pin is just left unused.

Gelid makes good solid products at very good price points. Most fan controllers are very functional with 4 30w channels can actually support 10-20 fans on each channel.

Edit: just to be clear I'm suggesting using both a fan controller like the gelid unit AND PCB splitters to better organize your fans into groups of identical models.

I have 2 top x 200 mm,
1 side x 230mm,
2 bottom x 140 mm,
1 x 45 deg. angle x 140 mm in the middle of the case
1 x front 200 mm
1 rear x 140 mm

I don't want to complicate things w/ the Splitter PCB. I'll go w/ the Gelid on 6 of the critical fan, and leave the rest to the embedded fan controller that c/w the NZXT case

Does Gelid has a Quiet Mode?

EDIT:

I found this:
