My space is 4x4. What sort of cobs do you think? Cree? Citizen?

luminus cxm22 are the best deal going

9@50W each in that space will do you very well

Great thanks what sort of driver would i use to power the 9 of them?

hlg 480-48A is a good fit

This setup with 6 Vero29 D's on an HLG-480HC2100A would put you right around 465W, caveat is it's $410 which is significantly more than your $300 budget.

With an angled aluminum frame you'd be looking at closer to $450, but it would brighten the shit out of your growroom

Thanks guys appreciate all your feedback. Still unsure as to what led to go for. I have time to research and get some knowledge of the different leds before i actually plan on buying them

Smart approach. I'm a big amateur in the lighting department when compared to people like @CobKits perusing these forums. Don't hesitate to ask questions because there are some pretty helpful people around.
