Pros: These are my current (Feb 2020) favourite. On my instrument they are even, silky, bold but with a slight edginess which I really like. If you try them do include the 'E' which works really well along with the set and sounds round even in first position.
Cons: The D string has occasional manufacturing issues where the central core wires don't sit snugly around the ball but that doesn't seem to affect the overall performance.

Excellent strings
Pros: Excellent set for adding some freshness, clarity and volume to a violin. Strong, confident and clear, they work especially well with a naturally full or dark instrument, adding another dimension to the sound.
Cons: The E string is very bright and physically very thin. Great if you want a loud, clear, piercing sound. I normally swap the E for something else though.

Larsen Il Cannone solo ,worth a try!
Pros: The medium tension of the strings will work well with some instruments and there is an evenness across the four strings (btw. Stick with the Larsen e string!).
Cons: Rather unstable strings which I found surprising. I misguidedly thought that things would improve once the strings had settled in.
Other: Nonetheless, these are good strings which I will stick with for now!

Mellow tone and easy to play double stops
Pros: D string is more mellow so volume and depth of tone are more balanced over the four strings. With my previous strings, the D string was much louder than the other three strings. Double stops are easier to produce.
Cons: I prefer a little more brilliance.
