String tension: Rotosound Swing Masters vs DR

[pmad_bass]

For similarly gauged strings, is there a difference in tension between DR and Rotosound Swing Masters?

I generally used 45, 65, 85, 105 in DRs. Was thinking of giving Roto's a revisit (it has been years, i.e. decades since I've played on em).

I see that Rotosound sells a set of Swingmasters gauged at 45, 65, 80, 105. Was just wondering if the tension would be comparable....or if the Rotos would be heavier. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Rotosound also has a .045 .065 .085 .105 set if you do not like the lighter feeling A string.

Which DR are you comparing to? Hi-Beams w/ the Round Core or Lo-Riders with the Hex?

I was wondering why the A string was differentiated. Pretty sure I have the Hi Beams/round core. Some where in my memory I think I recalled that DRs were generally lower tension compared against comprable gauges....perhaps that memory is inaccurate?
