I'm still not sure about the actual playing qualities of these weichs? I owned Evah Regulars, wasn't a fan. Too thick and heavy tension for my taste. Liked the sound and feel under the fingers but abandoned them due to their high tension and lack of playability in thumb position (we're not even talkin' end of the fingerboard, these start to sound lumpy around the first G harmonic!)

Orig Flexocore is a great set but the G is noticably brighter than the rest of the set. I think Flex 92 has the nicest sound for orchestra playing. Not sure how these Weichs compare.
