Sadowsky strings

I just picked up a used Sadowsky NYC and am taking it be set up tomorrow. The strings need replacing and the action is a bit high for me.

Question for anyone that has used the Sadowsky strings - is there a big difference between the black and blue series? I've read what's on the Sadowsky site (http://sadowsky.com/strings/difference.html) but was looking for real world experience.

I'm currently using Fodera nickel ultralight (40 55 75 95) and figured I'd stay with a nickel string.

Just wondering.

Thanks for your input!

The description on the Sadowsky site is spot on. I liked the tension of the blue over the black. Is there a noticeable difference between blue and black? Yes, in the ways described on their site. Is it an astronomical difference? No.
