^^^I only use D'Addario XL's when I can't get DR's. For instance if I'm playing a gig in a town I'm not familiar with and I just wander into some random music shop. Its pretty likely that they'll have D'Addario XL's (I would venture to guess that they're the most common string in shops in the US), but not very likely that they'll have DR Hi-Beams.
If I have the choice between the two its DR Hi-Beams for sure
