I tend to use Bel Canto G, D and A as they are better for bowing but always use Spirocore for the E string because it has more depth

This string solves an issue the regular Gut-a-Like had for me. The regular Gut-a-Like strings are good strings, but the regular Gut-a-Like E-string is quite loose, which means limited note sustain and the occasional over-vibrating and colliding with the A-string (=awful sound). I caught myself deliberately avoiding the E-string because of this, but with this copper winded E, I can finally enjoy the long sustain and good tension that avoids clipping into the A-string. My advise is to stay clear from the Gut-a-Like and pay the extra and go for the Deluxe string set, which comes with a copper winded E and A. Tip: this string is equal to the Gut-a-Like Twister Copper E String.

Compared to Eudoxa E, the first thing you notice is the greater intensity of sound. The string feels as though you need slightly more weight with the bow, but it also speaks easily, if a little later than the Eudoxa. It is a huge dark sound, less bright and with fewer treble overtones than Eudoxa. It is a deep "purr", but if you want a loud attack it will take the windows out! I have had the string on a week now, and it is starting to develop more colour and any suspicion of wolf notes is disappearing as the instrument settles to the new tension (I think it is about 5lb less than Eudoxa E). It is actually...

While not as beefy as the usual orchestral Spirocore I'm used to it balances excellently with the solo strings I am using downtuned to A, D and G

I love these strings. Great value for money. Only downside?, same as all gut strings; need a little more TLC than steel an tuning is affected by temperature change, ie hot stage lighting. Still highly recommend this product
