Warm, responsive, projecting D string.
1 out of 1 found the following review helpful

Pros: the Obligato D Silver has a very responsive and warm tone. It projects into the hall much better than expected under the ear. My new favourite string! Silver feels luxurious under finger tips too.

Cons: It does take a good few days to settle. It kept going flat.

In my experience, Obligato D string is the best
1 out of 2 found the following review helpful

Pros: As the D usually resonates more on my violin than the G, I chose this string which was a not the greatest I've used compared to the Evah Pirazzi Gold. However, it contrasted well with the other strings

Cons: It didn't make as big a sound as the others
