An Evolution of the Magnacore Series: More Control, More Projection
This string is part of the development of steel core "Wire Core" strings, aiming for a balance between harmonic density, focus, and power reserve. The work on the core and winding seeks to maintain warmth while improving sustain and projection, especially in soft dynamics.
Intended Use and Player Level
Ideal for intermediate to advanced cellists looking for an expressive D string capable of remaining clear and centered at low dynamics. Suitable for classical, chamber music, and orchestral contexts, it also fits situations where projection and attack precision are essential.
Sound Characteristics
The solid steel core provides a clear attack, good tuning stability, and reliable response. The precision flatwound winding contributes to a homogeneous feel and a more "settled" tonal texture. The resulting sound is warm, highly focused, and particularly convincing in pianissimo, while retaining a high volume when the string is engaged.
