Depends on your budget, but IMO, the X7 Phenom.  It's a fantastic marker.

I haven't had it long.  I think it had some initial issues which have been worked out but the general consensus I've seen at least seems to be its the best marker Tippman makes.  I can't compare to other markers, but maintenance is *extremely* easy.  The pushpin system they have is awesome.
If you want a lot of Phenom info you might check out the Phenom section on the X7 Owners group site: http://www.x7og.net/phenom/
There will certainly be gun-to-gun quality issues (not sure how prevalent they really are with Tippmann) as I'll see threads about air leaks, etc. but I see those with all markers.

I would have to say it all depends on your budget.  I would say that the X7 is a great marker if you have a higher budget but the 98 custom and the alpha black are good options.

Your choice. I prefer the 98, but that's because I'm not a big fan of the cyclone. Most would say the A-5 though.
