Definitely Eb, with 5 valves! ;-)
(I bet you couldn't guess that this is the configuration I just purchased myself?)
Seriously, I figured that bass tuba range would be more appropriate than contrabass. As long as you put a 5th valve on it, the Eb can do everything the CC ones can do. Good luck!
My opinion for what it's worth...
