best value / quality combination i have used
These strings let you hear how the violin sounds. They do not impose a sound of their own (unlike most synthetic, aluminium wound strings and cheap strings in general). If the violin has a good bass, a lively mid or a sweet treble you will hear it with these strings. Conversely, if the violin has a weak bass, a dull mid or a tinny treble you will hear that too. If a poor sound is evident you will know to adjust, or have the violin adjusted for better sound (bridge, sound post). These strings give an excellent sound with a well adjusted, quality violin.They are also slim, do not require heavy finger pressure and are therefor kind to the fingers
Highly recommended

Chromecor pirrastro - excellent deal
I've used these strings for gigs and recording for years. They not only give a good warm sound accousticaly but also they seem to also manage that warm tone even with a fishman pickup . Most strings give a saxophone- like tone when you start wiring them up into your PA - these still end up sounding like a violin !
They are long lasting as well , I can get up to a year out them usually, and have never noticed a fall off in sound over time. The first indication is usually that the A string windings start to go up at the nut. On occasions when stuck I've stuck old strings back on the spare fiddle and they still sound ok.
They are half the usual price at Thomann just now - At other sources they are about 35 -45 pounds a set - and are on offer from Thomann at 26 euros (August 2014. ) -

Very responsive and durable
I have tried many strings (synthetic and gut) like Pirazzi, Dominant, Olive, Eudoxa, tonica ...you name it...but for "MY VIOLIN" the best strings s far have been Chromcore! My violin is much more responsive with these strings and sings much better! I really love it! The only downside is the E-String...I am not happy with it and changed that with Kaplan non-whisle and it maches the set very good! I am happy with this setup :)

Very good strings
I am not a musician, but these strings didn't break after a year of intense use (3 hours per day, every day) and my doughter's teacher saying compliments to their sound quite often.

Good choice for musicians
excellent strings, stable, with a very bright sound. they will work well in the learning process, but I would still use others for a concert performance.

A great quality steel core string
If you are interested in quality steel core strings and you have not tried Pirastro Chromcor, then you should
They are even, relatively rich and a little warmer than most steel core strings. They are stable in terms of pitch and tuning, and seem to last for a really long time
They are accompanied by special plastic rings in all four strings, to protect your bridge.
In my experience they work best with dark and sticky rosins, such as the pirastro schwarz or the hidersine 6v
They are relatively loud
Considering all these, they could be great for modern music genres, country, blues, rock, jazz and electric instruments as well. Moreover, they could make a student instrument sound really lively and comfortable for beginners who cannot mess with tuning issues

Great strings
had been using them for a very long time, they are very nice in terms of playability and they feel soft to play.
they are very valuable comparing their price, cheap strings doesn't mean cheap sounding, those chromcor strings last long and they sound really well.
