I found the sound of Soloist upper A and D strings
a very good match for my cello and an improvement
in the quality of sound over my previous standard Larsen. The sound was rounder on the D string and took less effort to come out. They did not take a lot of playing into.
My only reservation is on the quality. Neither string lasted very long. One within a few months during
tuning and the other after 6 months of playing , whereas previous strings lasted much longer.
A violin maker called them "temperamental" and
this is a considerable drawback if correct.
