Very low contrast (grade 1) tends to look better
with graded papers. VC papers have a hard time
achieving maximum black with a grade 1 or 0. The
best VC paper I've tried in regards to this is
Agfa Multicontrast Classic. But Galerie or
Bergger grade 1 in Selectol-Soft is still a better
combination IMHO. Personally I tend to print at
least grade 2 or stronger, so it's rarely an issue
for me.

You'd think so, but honestly it really doesn't
as long as your filters are clean and relatively
new.
