I prefer flat mirros for their precision, and focused gobos, but barrells generaly give you more coverage. It all depends on their needs. I often like them used in 3's with the barrell as the centerpiece...ie.

scanner....Barrell....Scanner

yeah, what stevie said is perfect. So u can shut off everything else and leave just 2 scanners on to point at the mirror ball. u can change colors this way without bringing pinspots that have only white.
my 2 centz

The traditional flat mirror is my choice. You can do more, and if you only need a single beam, there it is. Two scanners and a barrel are cool, you jsut have to get a smooth moving barrell, not a jittery thing. The more smooth, the better it looks, so thats why I go with scanners.

If you can't decide...maybe get a tron series effect and then buy the opposite type head.

do this: scanner, barrel, scanner(the barrel in the middle of the truss), or Barrel, scanner, scanner, barrel. this is if u want barrel/flat beam. u can also get all flat mirrors. These are my recomendations.
