It all depends. Perhaps you were comparing a bad sub with a better one, for reasons more complex than just the cone material.
Here is a counter-example: Rythmik's best sub for music (F12) is offered in two versions, one with an aluminum cone driver and one with a paper cone driver. The paper cone version is more dynamic. The metal cone is better for pushing high SPL at low frequencies, i.e. home theater. In this particular case, I suspect the metal cone is a fair bit heavier and thus it doesn't track the transients as well. But that's conjecture since I don't have the data.
If a paper cone is used in an application where there is a loss of dynamics due to cone flex, then I think it was misused.
What a nonsense. Sub-woofer is at most 40Hz. Any decent driver can do it. Cleanly? To high levels? No. You need good motor, good cone, good enclosure. Try two sub-woofers that differ only in the cone material and then come back.
Subjective impression of dynamic for bass comes from the midbass/upper bass
or lack of distortion when
