They are all good (except for martin which I have never tried). But I think you'll like Rotosound. Because they are endorsed by many hard rock bassists i.e. Geddy Lee, Chris Squire, late John Entwistle, John Paul Jones, Steve Harris, Billy Sheehan.....to name a few.

It has reviews for the Dean Markley's and Boomers. You might wanna look at the reviews for the DR's, too.
