Ignition Coil Q

If you didn't want to pay Honda parts money for new ignition coils, what would be the next best thing quality wise that is more affordable? Sometimes aftermarket performance parts can be an upgrade for similar or less money is why I ask. Getting a little misfire under low throttle load pulling hills, going to get new plugs as well, but figured since the car is coming up on 300k.... might as well replace them and if replacing the coils, might as well see if there's anything "better" for the same or less money out there? This isn't the 90's though and C.O.P. has come a ways so, I duno maybe it doesn't much matter especially on a NA economy engine lol.

I ran the Hitachi coils from rock auto and they lasted for years and a lot of miles. no issues. and they are inexpensive. Honda had a parts deal with Hitachi so I believe they are oem just without the name.
