I prefer equal house system because it is based on duodecimal mathematics and is very precise.

I once looked at a friend's chart from a printout obtained from an online service. Many planets on the house cusps. I started giving my interpretation and she looked at me like I was wacked. Then I realized it was Placidus printout with houses very close to the Equal house cusps -it looked so symetrical i didn't think to check it - and I re-read the chart with the planets shifted into the adjacent houses and she said I described everything about her spot on. She then decided to only use Equal system as well.

FYI I divide signs using duodecimal system as well (12's) - every 2.5 degrees - instead of using decans. Duodecimal is the most perfect mathematical system. I don't know why it's not used more commonly.

Oh, fyi I just found some past discussions on house systems. There may be more - most of these are pretty old:
