One thing that totally sucks is...
A ferrotyped print gives the greatest density range from white to black.
So I am sure you would want to add the additional requirement for what you are looking for... "without ferrotyping".
Maybe the question could be thus:
What's your favorite paper and what kind of DMax do you get from it?
My favorite is Ilford Galerie developed in Dektol 1:2 for 3 minutes toned in Kodak Rapid Selenium Toner 1:20 and I just read a typical print of mine and got a density range from 0.05 to 2.12
