Is that D string always harder to play for you? Here's the solution.
nickraptis 14.02.2019
I own a Fender MIM Deluxe Jazz bass.
I always used the 45-105 string to get that nice low E.
For some reason I always found that the middle two strings were harder to play, and I was always trying to find the right action for them.

After trying these, everything plays like a charm.
E is tight as a beast (handles drop D well),
A and D are light and
G is snappy.

I' m never going back to unbalanced strings.
I just wish D' Addario made a BT set for my medium and short-scales.

I use these for standard E tuning on a standard 34" bass, works great for me.
After a while they become somewhat more dull sounding (as all strings do...) but they still provide you with a punchy and clear sound withouth the bright top end, i actually prefer them in this state as compared to "fresh-out-of-the-pack".
Never broke a bass string, and i don't expect these won't deliver the same reliability.

Lovely strings
LuxTheSlav 13.06.2020
I combine these with a XLB160 single .160 for my 5-string for a balanced tension set in drop A.
Great clarity and response, very bright which I like.
There are no downsides really, just preferences. If you want a mellow sound, go for something else - but with these, you can always roll down tone, whereas you can't brighten up dark strings.
