What do the pros put in? Variable speed? 2 speed? single stage, dual
stage? Brands and Models? This is for a new house, 1900 Sq. ft, main
floor, over an unfinished basement, and a 900 Sq. ft. half
story/loft/bonus room that is open to the main floor, in Northern Utah.

If you're going with AC one with a modulating gas valve and an ECM
motor. If no AC, one with a modulating gas valve and a PSC motor.
Find your own HVAC contractor, don't let the builder do it for you.
Find one who will provide you with heat loss/gain calcs and duct
designs.

Different brands and types are appropriate for different parts of
the world. I'd suggest to call several local heat contrators, and
see what they reccomend. If you're doing the job yourself, please
consider Goodman. They will sell to anyone, and parts are more
likely to be available.

The guy I worked for installed nearly exclusively Rheem Contours.

The better Goodman models when installed in a proper duct system will
perform well and longterm.
Many factors are critical to efficient and long lasting performance.
