Merci pour ce travail de comparaison !

In actual use, I'm impressed

Hey Clay, I only have one question, is the solo version of those versum strings significantly louder then the non solo version? I like the non solo just so slightly better sound quality wise but assume that they won't have enough power, btw. very nice playing

thank you for very informative videos .

Hi Clay! what is your opinion on II cannone worm & broad over versum solo ? which one would you chuse choose.?or do u have any video on them.?

I want to use the mv88+ for my piano, do you still recommend it or have you upgraded to something else?

Hi! Sorry to leave an unrelated question here, but I just saw your brilliant comments on Reddit and wonder that your blog has been closed. It is not possible to enter your blog, and I’m seeking for your bridge unwarping method-which you mentioned ‘by DRY HEAT’.

Thanks so much!

So Clay, having also played both the Rondos and the Versum Solo now, I was wondering if after all this time you went back to Versum Solo or have stuck with Rondo? I’ve been after a particular sound for a long time and Versum Solo was the closest I got so far. I loved the Rondo A and G, by far my favorites of those strings, but I hated the C and D. The D had a really weak fourth position for me and was too mellow compared to the brilliant A, but was also too weak to match the powerful and noble G. it was like it was mismatched to both the A and G and drove me nuts. The C was difficult as well, and even after taming the carelessness aspect, I found it too airy for my liking. I wish I could try a pairing that had a better complement to the Rondo A and G. I’ve thought I substituting both with Versum Solo D and C and was wondering what you thought that might be like. I don’t want to substitute the Rondo C for a Spirrocore C because I don’t like the gravelly tone, I love the clarity though. I just want a C with an non-gravelly edge. I am curious if a Versum Solo C will fit that bill for me. I am more worried about trying to park the Versum Solo D with the Rondo A. I guess I’m just a picky customer.

Isso foi com o mesmo instrumento?

Hi Clay, I’m cogitating over strings to try on my teacher’s (partial) Testore and considering Rondos, this video made it very clear to me. I’m going to compare with Magnacore Ariosos unless you have a video that convinces me not to 😆 Thanks!

Enfin je trouve le 6e que je joue merci

Superior와 Special의 비교!

Outstanding. I am excited and motivated to learn more cello pieces. I love this instrument. It's amazing.

I love how lower Versum Solo and Rondo sound. I can't decide which strings I would buy for my lowers, so I though about mixing them (Rondo G and Versum Solo C) Do you think is this a good idea? I did that with a Larsen Soloist A and a Magnacore D, and they did work for me

What cello are you playing?

actually perfect 🥰

Thank you for yet another detailed and VERY well produced sound extravaganza, Clay. If I may add my two cents worth from an amateur's point of view, folks with less experience, like me !, might wonder if these strings might fit well with their intermediate level cellos. In my particular case the answer is an unqualified yes. First of all, the classy Magnacore Arioso packaging hints at the level of quality inside but more importantly, once these guys are on a cello, delight awaits. For instance, my 5 month old Larsen A and D Originals were nothing to sneeze at but the new Arioso D, especially, just blew the D Original out of the water. The new A was also a treat albeit to a slightly lesser extent. The 5 month old D'Addario C and G were OK but the Arioso C certainly was an improvement over the rather undefined sounding D'Addario C. Overall, the Magnacore Ariosos REALLY improved the quality of sound in the resonance and sustain domains. To those new to installing their own strings, do not forget to wipe them clean with 99% Isopropyl alcohol BEFORE installing! Yes, even brand new strings fresh out of the packet need the protective oil coating during manufacture wiped off before installing. Happy cello-ing! Thanks again, Clay : )

Je trouve ça d'un ennui

Je n'aime absolument pas

Now I play 1... 00:01

Thank you - this is extremely helpful in exploring the Perpetual line of strings - I was debating on Edition A vs Soloist A and quite frankly, I don't hear enough of a difference to fret about it and I do have a VERY good sound set up on my Mac : ) If you see this comment, would you care to advise on whether you have found anything you like better than the Perpetuals in terms of tone, playability and above all, a "friendly", sonorous A without the slightest edge? Many thanks again for you highly detailed sound comparisons - no one does it better! : )

Somehow I like the Versum Solo A more than the Rondo A. I have the feeling that Versum Solo has a bit more brilliance that the Rondo. Rondo is more warm. Maybe it is just because it sounds a bit more similar to the Larsen Solo A, which I am more used to.

Thanks for the extensive comparison! Great to be able to judge for yourself. I think I'll get the rondo's or the perpetuals. Now I have magna core arioso c,g I also noticed a lower tension Rondo A will be released. The marketing is confusing though, they call it 'experience'

I like Wittner, but Frirzs it's very nice too... in mu opinion, Wittner is more clear and resonant

Thank you so much!! Can you compare Larsen Magnacore with Versum Solo in the next video? Thank you!!

You're cello its old or modern? because the sound the sound change...

Beautiful!!!

Nice!!! :)

Gracias chaparrito por mostrarnos la calidad, no esta mada mal por el precio.

Beautiful.

Warchal Amber is the closest you're going to get to the sound of Gut Strings w/o having any.

That Rondo D is substantially brighter than even the Versum Solo, and I heard they fixed the "hollowness" issue. It's probably impossible for two string brands to have the same intonation... right? I will probably pay to find out.

Any particular favorites so far? Right now I have an 8mm tempered 'bell metal' stainless steel alloy that I've been using for years without any compulsion to change it, but I absolutely despised the 10mm carbon fiber endpin I had on it previously.

Good video... what Cello Strings did you use for ADGC for the comparison ? Please post more videos.. we love it !

Hi, is this ok for a double bass?
