If there were a simple answer to this question, then all of the other
papers would disappear from the store shelves.   There is no one "best"
paper.  Some people prefer cold tones; for them the cold tone looking
papers are the best.  Others prefer neutral or warm, and on and on.  Even
then, certain papers handle tonal ranges differenty than others.    Some
papers seem to work best with certain films.    Some sunjects seem to work
best with certain papers.  There are a lot of personal preferences involved
here. 

Ask a dozen photographers this question, and you will likely get a dozen
different answers.
