Original Flat Vs Belcanto.

I know we wrote tons of words about Belcantos..

But I would like to read some comparison between these two great arco strings : Pirastro Original Flat and TI Belcanto.

They have both great quality according to me, but different feelings..

My first impression: Belcanto are easier to play, OriginalFlat have a more complex sound, with a wider range..

..Your impressions..?

I'm digging up this old thread to see if anyone would care to comment. I'm using the belcanto d and g right now. I dig them, but would like more power and lows. The EPs I had on there previously had the lows, but they just didn't blend well in the section. They had some top end "zing" that just stood out too much. Comments on the orig. flats vs. belcantos?

You want some help for the whole set, D&G or A&E?
I'm confused.
