I can buy three sets of Elixir PBs for about the same as one set of titaniums, they should last at least as long, and sound better. End of story, AFAIC.

Usual disclaimers apply......IMHO, YMMV etc.
I agree, tone is very subjective. "stone-dead" to one is "warm and punchy" to another.
That's why we all own a variety of makes models and prices of guitars... even picks
