Check Rockauto. I replaced my brakes about 2 years ago with Dynamic Friction Geospec coated rotors and Bosch quiet cast pads. Still in great condition and stops on a dime.

Pros: great condition, stops well

I swear by Bosch quietcast. I’ve done cheap brands before but seem to squeak, fade, or make too much dust.

Pros: quiet, less dust
Cons: squeak, fade

I believe a division of Bosch’s automobile braking development is in NKY. They did the newish NSX brakes there.

Pros: NSX brakes development

I recently replaced all the brake pads on my 2020 brz performance package, and it now squeals way more than before and has a noticeable clunk when pressing the brake pedal especially after reversing. I got Bosch Ceramic QuietCast pads from Rockauto, used ceramic lubricant on the back of the pads and all contact surfaces, and silicone lubricant on the pins. Once I apply a good amount of pressure to the brakes, they're very quiet for awhile but eventually start squealing again. Also I did do the bedding process and it didn't change anything, plus that wouldn't stop the clunking.

Pros: quiet under pressure (initially)
Cons: squeals, clunking noise
Vehicle: Subaru BRZ
