DR Hi Beams - please please can you Post a mp3 of them?

Im trying to decide if I like them and can't find much useful on the
I'm scared they might be too bright on the other hand I'm curious.
Also some say they are more "middy" than other steels but others say they ate mid shy... I'm confused!!!!

Can someone please post here a mp3 or sound/video file of these strings?? Thousand years of bass bliss I wish you!

Thank you

A soundclip wouldn't be any help, they will sound completely different on your bass played by your hands through your amp. Personally I find them to be mid-shy.

I assure you a mp3 - or better still several- coupled with my understanding of my bass freq range & technique are of great help toward getting a feel for what to expect!!
