Search ebay for 120 watt grow lights, you should be able to find a nice one fairly easy.

I love my LED, it's only a three band but does great. As for replacing a 600 I don't know about that. I can match my 400 HPS yields tho with out problems.

Higher wattage the better penetration you'll get. I haven't played with a 5 band yet, tho it should do better than my three band setup. That light is made by the same company as mine so I guess it'd be a legit unit.

To many viables to say honestly. It'd greatly depend on strain and grower ability. But a good grower, who knows his/her strain could easily do 1 to 3 grams per watt. I wouldn't use that unit in an area over 6 square feet with high expectation either, less of course less would be better.
In my experience, experience is the largest key to yields.

I noticed during veg growth the limb spacing was closer, making a tighter looking bush. Other than that not much difference in the two systems.
As far as coverage goes, I wouldn't go beyond 6 square foot for either system. So I guess the anwer you're looking for is yes.
I'm currently letting a friend use it, along side of a 400 HPS in a 2.5 x 2.5 x 5 foot space, he has just started week 5, day 29 of slowering and this is what it looks like.

Those 14w panels are jokes, they'd only be good for side lighting in my personal opinion.
That other unit looks like a nice setup, tho.
One of the biggest points to check for is wattage per bulb, you want at least 1 watt per bulb, tho I'd prefer more.
