Good flatwound comparison

Thank you for that.

After listening several times on headphones my old ears could only hear a very slight difference between them. How to describe the subtle variations I don't know.

I'd say the D'Addario sounded brightest but not bright. The Fender and Rotosound were even/balanced. La Bella deep/soft. Thomastik were growly.

Anyone else care to post a quick impression?

My old ears suffer too. I think rotosounds were the brightest sounding flats.
