Sound: Bright,defined,with plenty of sustain..but has a little more string tension the tone tends to be brassy and lacks warmth needs a better balance across all six strings ok for brightening a cheaper acoustic but not what I would record with perhaps the core to wrap ratio on the strings needs to be adjusted Ease of Use: a little stiffer to play Quality: all six strings don't balance well Value: average value Manufacturer Support: D'Addario is ok, but don't respond well to criticism of their products The Wow Factor: nice packaging,shiny strings don't deliver Overall: I will replace it very soon...can't stand the brassy tone and stiff feel

Sound: the sound is great. i take one mark off because they do a bit of a squeaking noise when you move your fingers. Feature: the coloured ends make sure that you dont mess up by putting them in the wrong spot. Quality: theyre made to last . its just that small squeaking sound that irritates me when you move your fingers. Value: very much worth the money. Manufacturer Support: daddario is my favourite line of strings. The Wow Factor: i have it already you. Overall: its mostly good.

Sound: Overall, these strings are fine for a beginner or a backup acoustic, but they are just too dull and lifeless if you are a gigging musician. Keep a set on hand since they are cheap, but step up to the EXP line if you want a good sound.
