I just wrote a longer reply, but my programm crashed.
Anyway, I played obligatos for the last 2 years, and had no problems with the 2 sets I used up in this time, other than a broken E string that I played for one year in a period where I moved the bridge aroung a lot.

I liked them quite a lot, but now I don´t care too much anymore - they bend too much under the bow, and have a bit undefined pitch.

I have TI belcantos on my bass now for a week, they are getting better every day, sustain increases (!), more growl... I´m curious how they will sound in a month. Arco is fantastic, easier than the Obligatos IMO.
If you want a string that sounds warmer thans Spiro, but has a very defined pitch and speaks fast, give BC a try.
