One of the best sounding sets of strings for classical guitar!
For the price these strings are simply unbeatable in my honest opinion. A friend of mine turned me onto these strings a couple of years back and I haven't put anything on my guitars since! They are really amazing, very crisp and clear, without being too bright, really well balanced for a lot of different styles from jazz, to folk strumming, to flamenco and Spanish classical. I can't reccomend these enough. Based on the price they are amazing, they don't tend to go dead too quickly either. The tension says high but they are prett standard, they are not too hard to play and give very good volume and tonality. My string of choice by far!

Very slow response.
I have a Spanish vintage Argentine Walnut guitar out of Barcelona that was just beautiful with Philippe Bosset prestige High tension, which I cant find here. I thought I would try a different tension as well as brand. Silly move!
I guess a slow response can be expected until my guitar adjusts and everything settles in, but after a month they were still unbearably slow. Considering these are advertised as having a fast response I cannot recommend these strings for a guitar that plays perfectly with high tension strings. I will try these on something else as the quality of Savarez strings is generally very good. I went to Optima 24 carat gold high tension just to be a snob but really like them on this guitar. To wrap it up I should have used my brain and stuck with what I knew would work.

Red card is just right for most players and offer what we would normally expect to be called 'normal' tension. The tone is superb and response subtle. When they first go on it's heaven! The harmonics are easy to finger and lose no tone. Wonderful strings.

Perfect for Bossa-Nova and Jazz!
Only recently, thanks Thomann, I tried these strings, but now I use Savarez 520R on my Godin Multiac and Yamaha SLG200 guitars. I've played on Daddario EJ45 and EJ46 for the last 15 years and always wanted my sound to be more mellower and more balanced. These Saverez have different gauges and texture and they feel different. So I find them perferct for what I play - jazz, bossa-nova etc.
But you should be careful when stringing a new set of Savarez - if your nut has sharp edges, it can easily dent the a new string, especially 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

Good
These are my favorite strings right now for bossa nova and jazz. The basses warm and strong but are quite mellow compared to other sets The trebles sound great for jazz! They have a very fat, pure tone with a lot of body and harmonics. One of the best strings for me!

Dry highs
Build quality and installation is great, as are the shiny lows.
Nice string tension, would say medium, not high.
The high notes are sounding lifeless and dry to me, working nicely in a chord setting, but insufficient in individual notes?
Perhaps this is standard for Savarez, as it's the first time for me using their strings

Adequate
I have used these strings and found them to be average. I did not think they were particularly durable and was a little surprised with the bass strings deterioration. The trebles have a nice sound as does the top E.
Again they were adequate but it is doubtful I will get them again as there are several other brands to try. However, it will not stop me from trying other types of Savarez strings.

I love this noisy strings
Because I love the texture and sound, and the noise of changing chords. Anyways, I've never really played on a different kind.

Very nice and clear
This set of strings fits me so well!
It provides a clear, round and percussive sound.
The treble strings are rectified nylon, wich produces a sound that is closer to the basses sound.
By that i mean: that strong difference in the sound quality bettween the D string and the G string is pretty much gone.
It sounds awesome for me since i was always annoyed with that strong sound difference between trebles and basses.
