Default Good shock spring combo?

Hi, was wondering what type of shock and spring combinations people use. I plan on replacing the shocks/springs on My 94 convertible 3.4. I've changed them on f body cars before(friends cars) but I don't drive their cars, so I don't know if one brand feels better than another. I might be opening a can of worms here with everyones opinion, but that could be fun also!

I know the thread is old, but I went with the Bilstein kit from Classic Industries. It comes with Eibach springs that lower the stance by an inch or so. Being that I replaced everything in the entire chasis with Moog, the shocks and springs make the car ride better than it ever did when it was new. I have a 99 z with 60k babied miles, and an 02 Formula with 48k and both gave stock set ups at the moment and their is no comparison. What my 94 lacks in power compared to my worked over Formula, it more than makes up for in handling.
