It's up to you in the end since cymbal sound is based almost completely on personal preference. Zildjian K's would be a good place to start looking in terms of jazz cymbals, but for prog metal and stuff like that I would say brighter cymbals would be better like A Custom. Or you could go for A's which are a sort of middle-of-the-road line and can pretty much do anything. Like I said it's all about personal preference. The best thing to do is go down to a music store and try out all the cymbals and see what you like the sound of and go from there.
