D'Addario Helicore Violin String Set with Wound E, 4/4 Scale, Medium Tension

This is the set of strings I usually buy outside and it's always sounded good on my violin but this one sounded so bad. It made my violin sound like a cheap violin. I haven't played as much as I used to but I know my violin is not at fault here. I'm so disappointed 😔

i bought the more expensive pro-arte last time but they only lasted 2 months so i bought these for less then half the price so i was expecting them to sound a bit harsh but i cant really tell the difference, maybe a touch brighter but that might be because they're new, so if there is a difference then it must be very subtle, maybe a professonal could tell. ill be sticking to these from now on and save money, i play bluegrass fiddle not classical violin

I bought these as I wanted to experiment with different strings, having had some issues with strings twice the price. Very pleased with the sound I'm getting. Be aware this will vary from instrument to instrument. I thought to try these as I had recently bought a D'Addario tuner which gave me the impression this company market quality products. At this price these string are definitely worth a try if you're not sure where to go with 'cheaper' strings.

High quality strings, recommended by our daughter's violin teacher. They work brilliantly, sounds great and last a good amount of time. Durable, reasonably priced and good for beginners or intermediates.

Bought it for my little ones she broke the G string. I changed it for her by using another brand string, however, the sound wasn't very nice, so I chose this one to give a try. The sound is much better.

Not medium tension, very high tension making pegs pop out all the time. Poorly bound at the winding end, so keep unravelling and sliding out of the hole in the peg. Quite a dull tone but E is slightly more bearable than the razor wire that Dominants make.
