Both are similar but it seems that the Acuda Blue P1 is like a "tamer" version of the MX-S.

The Acuda-P1 has a super, super soft topsheet. It's completely different than the MX-S, which is more of a Chinese-Euro hybrid.

I absolutely hated the P1 (I only tried 5 min though), so I can't really advise you for it, and I found the MX-S too difficult to play – great when on position, but really hard to play when timing is off, out of position, etc. On the other hand, it's very stable for blocking and the short game is great. It's also very, very heavy. Much more than T05 and any other hard tensor I've tried.

Depending on your level, MX-S may not be so suited. I found it better on flexible blades in any case. MX-P can be a good candidate too.

My preference at the moment is on the Omega V Tour. I find it very similar with plastic Xushaofas to T05 on celluloid. Good touch, very good for looping and counterlooping. And it's not too expensive either.

I would have completely disagreed with you a month ago only because I would have though the fact that Big Dipper is slower makes it easier to play with as the ball arcs better off it.

But I think that where I agree with you is more that MX-S is like Big Dipper but faster.  That makes it easier to play with in some ways and harder in others.  
I like putting heavy topspin on the ball...

Acuda P1 has a significantly softer topsheet and produces less spin on loops. It is harmless when not tuned.  I played for three hours with P1 on on side of my blade and MX-S on the other. The difference was that P1 is tuned with Falco Long.

With the celluloid ball, P1 was very bad and MX-S was quite good. MX-S outplayed the Donic in every possible segment of the game.

When we played with a Joola 40+ ball, the tuned P1 was very good. About 15% faster on fast loops and maybe spinnier and surprisingly more stable. The softness of the topsheet was of great help but I am sure that when MX-S is tuned, it will be better than P1 even with the plastic ball.

My advice is that if you play with the celluloid, go for the MX-S. If you will be using plastic, both are an option but P1 has to be tuned to work really well. MX-S is usable when untuned but you will have to work hard.

P1 really is a useless rubber for forehand attack. While unusable on my forehand I found it usable on my backhand for my style of play. It pushes really well, stable in the short game And blocks really well, on my backhand it reminds me of 05Fx. plan on sticking with it on the backhand for awhile.

The two rubbers are completely different. Do you want a very hard rubber without catapult effect that requires you to generate all of the energy yourself, then go fo MX-S. Do you want a soft rubber that is at the verge of bottoming out, but which offers excellent control, go with the P1. Assuming your blade has a soft outer veneer, I would go with the MX-S.

P1 is faster and has a softer topsheet.

I  have never played with the P1 so pardon the ignorance, but what is so bad with a hard sponge and soft topsheet combo?

Like patrickhrdlicka  wrote: these rubbers are really different. MX>S is definitely not better for everyone! Of course you will get more spin with MX>S if you have the right technique, but it is MUCH easier to generate spin with P1 and P1 also has MUCH better control. Therefore P1 is the better rubber for beginners or players in lower leagues. It is really fun to play with this rubber.

+1 Magic_M. I have ordered a sheet of P1 just because it is so fun to play with.

Post resurection after three years...
MX-S VS. Acuda Blue P1 ,with PLASTIC BALL ?

I would add the underrated Tibhar Quantum which is a fantastic forehand rubber.
