Dr Sunbeams Vs D'Addario NYXL

I can't speak on the NYXLs, but I will say that I actually prefer D'Addario XLs over DR Sunbeams. Sunbeams are a fantastic string that have a more plush texture under the fingers, but I felt that they were too spongy feeling. Comparable GHS Boomers (hex core) were too stiff. D'Addario XLs were just right.
