Fluval makes a nice canister filter as well, I use that on one of my 55 gallon tanks. It's absolutely silent and streamlined, canisters are great like that.
If you want a HOB filter, I agree with an Emperor 400. I run that (and a 280 because I'm anal like that) on the other 55 gallon and have been very impressed by the performance I get from it.
Best of luck!
