Pros: Price and quality of tone.
Cons: The string has to be replaced on a regular basis because the tone is lost within two months of constant playing. Not a problem when they are so cheap.
Other: Good enough for Heifetz.......

Goldbrokat string brings security.
Pros: I bought this string because it was recommended to me to prevent a whistle. It did help, although I discovered the whistle occurred because the violin is new and the bridge is slightly higher at the E string side than previously. So I was hitting the string without realising it. However, I am also inclined to think this string does help.
Cons: nothing. Fine.

Very good, but maybe not fit for all violins.
Pros: Good sound, which mixes well with the remaining strings. Not too shrill, but present.
Cons: Didn't last long. My first one broke by itself after 40 days, because of corrosion (and i am a manic cleaner, and my sweat is not acid). In a particular new violin i own it sounds good, but it chokes a bit the whole response of the violin. I tested 2 different .27 gauge. Next time i'll try a .26, for a bit less tension.
