Here are audio files for 6 sets of strings so you can hear what they sound like.
I forgot these pics. The last audio file is the dominant sounding strings g and d from Alice e was Kaplan and i just left the ProArte on instead of putting on the AvantGarde.

I have to give you props for tyring out SIX sets of strings. I typically barely have the patience to put on ONE set (and there may be some bad words said along the way).
How long did you "break in" each set for?

I agree whole heartedly . Also hard to compare sound without playing any song, especially on string set's which barely cost more than a gallon of gas.

Christine, I kept each set on for 2 1/2 days. Put on the strings in the afternoon, practiced with them, retuning twice, practiced with them all the next day at least 8 hours, retuning as necessary, then the next day retuning and writing out my thoughts and making the audio, then on to the next set of strings.

wow... yes.. very impressive your documentation and testing of the strings.
How soon until you know what strings you will use.. like your Forever strings. And of course I believe you will probably have a different string for each violin?
Good luck with your testing and violin journey.
