Hahnemuele William Turner was my favorite for a while, but I eventually
quit using it. The pigment chips very easily on that stock. But it can
be beautiful if you treat it with great care. I found Velvet Fine Art
is very close to the same look, but it has a little bit less tooth and
doesn't chip. Nice paper. I also like Epson Premium Lustre for its
ability to provide extreme sharpness and definition without bronzing.
The finish is somewhere in between semigloss and matte. My printer is a
2200 by the way, but I plan to eventually replace it with the 2400.

Good to hear you're enjoying it. I'd have gone that way myself if the
number of 16x20 prints I was doing justified it, but the R2400 is
proving to be a great workhorse for me.
I've been concentrating on matte surface papers ... Epson Enhanced
Matte and a little Velvet Fine Art so far. Very very nice results. I
do want to try some Hahnemuele, though I'll probably be spoiled if I
do.
