What are you getting? I play a Lowden O25.

I've never used new/true mediums before, but do you find that the string tension on these sets stay more uniformed when you tune down? Does it feel any different in standard?
The tension is actually better balanced in standard tuning compared to a normal set of lights. The heavier strings definitely handle tuning down better than a 'normal' set. If you do a lot of bending, you'll probably notice a difference. Otherwise, you'll just notice the benefits - better intonation, fuller tone, etc.
