Default baritone strings

Anybody have a favorite baritone string brand? I've tried the D'Addario coated and like them fine. But I've gotten very fond of Monel strings on guitars and thought something on that order would be fun to try. Martin doesn't seem to make any for baritone.

Suggestions welcome. Thanks

I use John Pearse baritone strings on my McAlister acoustic baritone guitar.

Same here - I use them on all my hog-tops and they'd be a perfect complement to my Taylor 320e baritone; I understand (perhaps wrongly) that LaBella will make a custom set to order if you buy sufficient quantity (TMK they have a two dozen minimum) - if someone doesn't produce a set in the not-too-distant future I might go that route...
