Default D'adario helicore pizz and the eternal quest

So I've recently started using the D'adario helicore pizz strings. I had 180's on my bass (old German flat-back), but she likes higher tension to crank out the noise. I think these are starting to grow on me. To my ear, they have a rounder tone than spiro weichs, a bit more "oomph" to them with a good amount of sustain. Anybody else have any success with these?

Of course, all opinions in relation to me and strings are subject to a one month trial (that's usually how long it takes until I decide to try something else, which will be spiro mittels).
