Have you ever worked with someone to set your bicycle up properly?
I've had 4 bike fittings. All of them made me morem uncomfortable, and slower.
How's your core? What is your posture like?
I think its at least half ways decent.
What do you wear while cycling?
Cycling shorts.

I know you mentioned that you don't want to hear about Brooks, but have a look over the Wallingford Bicycles site:
Saddles - Brooks, Berthoud | wallbike.com | wallbike.com
As you look, you'll notice that they've got a six month unconditional guarantee on their saddles ... you can try them for 6 months and can return them if they really don't work for you.
You'll also discover that there are some around the 150mm width. You can do this yourself, so I'll just bring one to your attention ... the Brooks Swift Titanium at 152 mm.

Custom (Spectrum) ti road bike, steel 29r. I've had 4 fittings, all of which made me more uncomfortable and slower. I think my core , flexibility, etc. is a bit above average (can touch the floor with all my fingers and thumbs). I use cycling shorts.
