Perfect for B tuning
I am going to address string tension in relation to the tuning and the scale length of your guitar in my short review, I consider this a really important aspect that's often overlooked.
I use this set for B tuning on an Ibanez RG560, with a scale length of 25.5 inch / 647,7mm (Fender scale). The tension is perfect and the wound 3rd string will make your life easier when setting the intonation.
Alternatively, if you consider using them on a 24.75 inch / 628.65mm (Gibson / Epiphone) scale guitar, they're great for C standard.

Like a piano.
If you aren't going to go with flats on your baritone, than these are the next best thing. These are meant for 27" to 28" scale baritones and I have them on a 27" Fender Jaguar tuned to B Standard, but could easily go down to G Standard. Low B sounds like a piano and the tension is perfect.

Great quality as ever from D'Addario
I use these on a 28 and 5/8" Warmoth necked baritone guitar and they perform just as well as D'Addario's other nickel strings. Personally, I found the 2nd thinnest string -tuned to F# (when the guitar is in standard B tuning) felt a little too light when compared to the 1st string (tuned B) and the 3rd wound string (tuned D). So I now use a plain 18 instead of the supplied 17 -but this could just be a matter of preference. Buying each string separately and making a custom baritone set would never be as cheap as buying a set like this and even after changing out the 17 for an 18 saves me money. I use 10 gauge D'Addarios on my normal guitars anyway, so can always use the extra 17 gauge strings as G strings in standard tuning. The thickest string (a 62) might be too thick to go through some tuner posts, but you can always drill/file out the hole slightly to accommodate thicker strings like these if necessary (I did this with a Schaller locking tuner and it works perfectly).

Unleash the thunder
I'm a long time D'Addario string user on regular scale guitars and long scale bass and these are equally superb - balanced, bright but not thin sound, just sound awesome clean or overdriven. I get decent string life and very rarely break strings even though I pick hard with a very heavy pick. Tuning stability is good too and general feel is good, string handling noise is low. Reslly, you can't go wrong with D'Addario sytings in my humble opinion - also, the pack is environment friendly too.

Good, even for 25,5 scale length
As i mentioned, i was using this strings on 25,5 scale length guitar and tuned it to mostly to B standart or A#. And with this tunning, the tension is pretty comfortable to play, didnt have a feeling that strings is too loose. I even tuned it down to G#, and here the strings loose enough, to make playing not so comfortable, but you can used to it.

Excellent strings
A excellent set of strings.
Work very well with a Gibson-style guitar tuned down to C standard.
The lowest string becomes a bit too loose when doing B-standard and playing faster riffs though.

These strings feel great for the price
These strings feel great for the price, but if you try NYXL you might probably prefer the latter and never go back...

Excellent for B and drop A tuning
After trying several different brands and string gauges to get good string tension in B and drop A tuning on my 25,5"six string I finally gave these a shot. For me, they are perfect!
Thick enough to get good tension on all strings, but still bendable enough for solo's, although it took me a little while to really get used to it after playing on 0.10 to 0.46 for a long time. The wound G string is a big win for me too, as previous sets around this gauge with a 'normal' G string somehow caused all kinds of tuning and intonation problems for me.
Little side note: I did have to adjust the neck and the height of the bridge a tad to compensate for the larger gauge to get the intonation right and avoid 'string buzz', but that's quite common I guess.
Last but not least: the tone and durablility are quite good as well. I did a string change just recently, but before that I had these on my guitar for at least three months and while they did sound a bit more dull in the end, I had no issues with tuning or playability.

They never let me down
I have been using D'addario XLs for nearly two decades. For me, they are the best bang for the buck. Much of what I play is live aggressive music on a floyd rose tremolo, so it is really imperative that the strings don't break or decay too quickly. I use this high gauge for one of my bands which plays in very low tuning, and have never had any problems whatsoever.

The only ones still payable
These are good strings, not as nice as the NYXL series, but the only ones that are as big as these.
