SYNTHETIC CORE.
The Brilliant set is intended for players who seek the most projecting sound. It also offers quick tuning stability. Synthetic core strings need about three to four days to settle in before achieving full tone quality.
Metal core as well as Synthetic core A strings are available. The sound of the synthetic A string matches the set perfectly. However aluminium or hydronalium wound A strings are less durable than those with a metal core so we wanted to give players a choice.

Pros: cheaper than Evah strings but similar bright powerful sound.
Cons: the C broke fairly soon after being fitted - disappointing, given how good most synthetic core strings are these days

Love them
Pros: Very bright and loud Clarity on the C-string Good tuning stability once settled
Cons: Took a while to settle Could be too bright if you have a young viola
Other: Really great for me and my instrument - very bright and projecting so might not suit all instruments but are OK for me. The C in particular is lovely and clear with no flobbery response like some Cs. I found it took a while for them to settle in for tuning but once they had, they stay in tune really well.

Pros: Strong sound, good volume possible, rich tone. Good value. The C is especially good, with both clarity and tone.
Cons: Possibly take a little longer to settle in than other synthetics. Quite a good A string (synthetic), but I have gone back to my favourite Larsen A. I found it difficult to get the C to speak quietly in really PP passages.
Other: They really are bright, so could be harsh if you already have a bright instrument, but excellent if you need clarity, especially in the bass.
