which who give my gsr more gains if i had one choice?

from my understanding 4-1 has more midrange but 4-2-1 more high end, or did i get that backwards?

which leads me to this question...
how much more midrange compared to how much more high end,
i mean if it was 10% more midrange increase compared to 5% more highend increase, then i would choose the one with a greater percentage difference.
