Best overall base antennas

[wiskyradio411]

Getting back in the game, Its been years. I still have my old big stick.. I will use my 30 yr old HR2510
as my base station for now and was wondering what the best antenna choices are these days for DX ect. I want to do it once and correct the first time. Cost is not a big concern, But what is a concern is the eye sore that would potentially be on my house. Less visible choices would be great. I heard of a type that just lays flat on the roof and just uses long lenghs of coax ? is this true and are those any good ? I would also like to be able to run unlimited power thru the antenna if I chose to, Not something limited to a few watts etc
