I've gone for the Dominants with a Spiro low C (I'm in fifths) and so far they're great. They can get a bit out of control under the bow compared to Pirastros (Flex, Orig Flex, Perminant has been my experience) but in return they have a very dry, lively tone. I'm happy so far, and we'll see after a season with the Orchestra but I think they're going to work very well for section playing.

All this talk of the EPs has me really wanting to try some, but having just changed to fifths tuning I have to wait until the solo set is released. That is supposed to be within a year, so that should be plenty of time for me to enjoy my Dominants.
