Keep in mind that the Rue LePic (56) reeds are Vandoren's answer to the
players who wanted to replace the very thick-blank Morree reeds that went
out of production several years ago. Whether they play better ("worth the
extra cost") than V12, Gonzalez, Zonda or anything else depends a lot on
what mouthpiece you're using them with and what response and tone
characteristics you're looking for.
