What is the best symbol to use for the d'Alembertian?

Question

Normally, most people use the symbol $\Box$ to represent the d'Alembert (wave) operator (including the linked to Wikipedia page).

Recently I wanted to use \hat\Box and \tilde\Box, but they do not render very well.

What is the "best" way to create such symbols?

Aside: The above image is rendered using my local install of pdflatex: pdfTeX 3.1415926-1.40.10-2.2 (TeX Live 2009/Debian). The symbols seem to render fine on some online services: e.g. "Online LaTeX Equation Editor" produces

from

\begin{align*}
\Box &= \sum_a \partial^a\partial_a \,, &
\hat\Box &= \sum_a \mathcal{D}^a\mathcal{D}_a
\end{align*}

Answer 1

I try with lmodern and then fourier and the result seems correct but I agree symbols \nabla \Delta have heavier line width than \box

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,lmodern} %and then fourier

\begin{document}

$  \hat\Box \nabla  \Delta$  

\begin{align*}
\Box &= \sum_a \partial^a\partial_a \,, &
\hat\Box &= \sum_a \mathcal{D}^a\mathcal{D}_a
\end{align*}  
\end{document}  

Finally I prefer :

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath,fourier} 
\begin{document}

$  \hat\square \nabla  \Delta$  

\begin{align*}
\square &= \sum_a \partial^a\partial_a \,, &
\hat\square &= \sum_a \mathcal{D}^a\mathcal{D}_a
\end{align*}
\end{document}
