I have been using these strings for a at least a year on a 1940's Italian violin. They seems to last at least 6 months without losing any tone or projection. I was using PI strings before and finally just lost interest in how unpredictable they were and even the sound they made. The Perpetual (regular, not the cadenzas) strings seems to have everything that I have been looking for for some time- tone, projection,dynamics and consistency.
Note: I use the G, D, A, for the E, I use a Heavy gauge Gold Lable.
I highly recommend these strings!!!!

Well , it is not for my violin . Passione works better for me.

I love the thicker e string, it's gentle on the fingers and sounds more mellow and full in the upper register

I got the alternate set, these are quite high quality strings, nice overtones and beautiful smooth sound that's definitely more mellow but still incredibly ringing and vibrant. Their playability is a little strange; they gain a slight grittiness (not crunchy, just an off vibration) in the initial stroke response as they get older, but its not really that noticeable. The platinum e is also quite superb, although again the response might not be quite as good as it gets used, however it is better in comparison to many other strings. Highly recommend.

I played the Evah Pirazzi for over 30 years and switched then to the Gold strings. I liked the Gold little better than the Evahs for a while but found that these strings are lacking two things: wide range of dynamic and complexity in sound. They were a little too plane for my taste. So I gave the perpetuals a try: I loved the complexity in sound right away but was really impressed by the great range of dynamics. Playing in ppp the sound still is focused, clear and very pleasant, playing ff the sound is big and still does not lose it's complexity. For me these are the best strings yet. I did not try the E-string but use still the gold E from Evah Pirazzi. Since I am so pleased with the Gold-E I did not want to spend the money trying the perpetual E. May be some day. In my opinion you would need a fine violin to fully appreciate the perpetuals.
