Strings for G&L L2000 Tribute

I just got a Tribute L-2000 as well. The strings ball ends are colored, which leads me to think they are D'Addario. My sales rep told me the string guage is 45-105. The bass sounds fantastic, but I've been thinking I might like a little less tension in the strings. I'm looking at DR Sunbeams, or Thomastic-Infeld Superalloy. Both have round cores and should be a little more flexible than the stock D'Addario's.
 
I've been wanting a G&L Tribute for a LONG time,
and I'm a huge fan of that really punchy cut through the mix tone.
My last visit to a local music store the owner had an older, really beat up Tribute with Elixirs on it, medium gauge.

It sounded amazing.
And they're coated. :D
