Shocks for 2006 MDX?

I am thinking of changing the shocks on my wife's MDX. The originals seem ok at 150k miles still and appear to behave the same as it was when we bought the car about 5 years ago with 80k on it. However I never liked the dampening of the stock suspension. Always felt like its very harsh for an SUV. In fact I've owned 3 acuras and suspension was something I changed right away for something a little more sportier but at the same time much nicer in terms of comfort.

Started looking around and so far I see KYB GR-2 as an option but I was looking for something more quality and as always looked at Koni and Bilstein however was surprised to see no offerings for MDX from either manufacturer. Always considered KYB as a value brand and not really interested in those.

Are there any other aftermarket quality options for a 2006 MDX out there that someone can recommend?

Never tried, though I know some guys here have the Monroe shocks.

KYB is almost the same as stock (Not as comfy though but they do the job)
Monroe OE Spectrum should give the same feeling as OEM

If you dislike OEM feel then you are pretty much stuck.
