Developed to bring out the full potential of your violin, the Il Cannone Medium set combines power with refinement and tonal complexity. This set includes a carbon steel E string with a removable ball end for clarity and warmth, an A string with synthetic core wound in aluminium for balance and brilliance, and D and G strings with synthetic cores wound in silver, offering body, colour and dynamic projection. Players describe the response as fast and fluid, with resistance under the bow and a highly nuanced tonal palette. The Il Cannone Medium set has been praised for its noble tone, harmonic richness and immediate playability, making it a favourite among soloists and ensemble musicians alike.

I have been using Larsen strings for several years now and this line is specifically perfect for a soloist bringing that extra kick of power and quality to it!” - Rusanda Panfili β€œWith Larsen's Il Cannone strings, I found the perfect partner for my violin. The tone is perfectly balanced between rich and warm and at the same time brilliant and projecting!” - Nicolas Dupont Review: Truly excellent string choice... - These strings are extremely well balanced and last a very long time relative to other lines of strings. I previously tried a mix, a set with soloist tension G and E strings and medium tension A and D strings. This combination worked great on my old violin to compensate for a lack of resonance in the G. But my new violin is a very sensitive 18th century violin, and a full set of medium tension strings is perfect. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND GIVING THE E STRING A TRY. Most violinists switch out the E string of whatever set of strings they use for something different, and I've seen plenty of people playing with Il Cannone strings with a different E. But this E string is fantastic! It is very sweet and warm but still has a strong projection characteristic of this line of strings. I do recommend an alternative to the black bridge protector tube. The best thing is a little clip installed by a luthier, something I'm planning on requesting when I have a new bridge carved for my violin. But the black tube that comes on the Il Cannone E cuts up easily by the string and is next to useless. ALSO BEWARE that these strings have an EXTREMELY metallic, tin (the metal) sound to them when you first start playing them before they stretch out. I would recommend letting them fully stretch to stability where they start holding concert pitch, before you even try to play on them. Omigosh they sound nasty at the very first. But this metallic sound very quickly balances out well, and it's that metallic quality that, in the form it does remain in, gives these strings excellent projection without sacrificing color. The end result and stable sound is one that is very rich and colorful but with a kick and core. It just takes stabilization and several hours of playing before they reach their best sound. Once Il Cannone strings reach their best sound, they last for a LONG time relative to other strings. They won't unravel or break (as long as you pencil in your bridge and nut grooves), but you will know when they go dead, because dead strings sound AWFUL. But it takes a long time of playing before these go dead. Review: Buenas cuerdas - Buenas cuerdas.

Gracias ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly resonant solo quality strings *by A***R on October 30, 2025* First time using these. The D and G strings are uncommonly resonant and sonorous! My A string feels almost startlingly bright, E string has a pleasing tone, not metallic. Recommend for solo playing more than symphonic. ## Frequently Bought Together - LARSEN Il Cannone Set Medium Violin Strings (LV-IC MED-B) - Thomastik Violin String RONDO (RO01, RO02, RO03A, RO04, 4) Set of 4 Types, Medium Tension RO100 - Thomastik Infeld Dynamo String Set for Violin - Synthetic Core and Carbon Steel Vibrating Violin Strings - Professional Strings - DY100 - 12.8 Inches --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/143274425-il-cannone-violin-set-medium](https://www.desertcart.co/products/143274425-il-cannone-violin-set-medium) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
