MH DE side by side Par comparison?

[schigara]

I have seen a site that showed the comparison of Par readings for 250w SE bulbs but have yet to find one for DE bulbs.

I have a 75g tank with mostly SPS so far and have 2x 250w DE XM 15000k's.

I read the XM 15 SE had about the lowest PAR of almost all the SE bulbs and assume the DE is probably the same or worse because of being shielded.

I have heard good things about the Phoenix 14 DE and they are fairly well priced at $60. Is anyone using this bulb and what kind of growth have you seen using it?
