I've got Elixir Polyweb's, and I love em. Polywebs are more coated, but if you want less.. get the nanoweb.

I've never tried D'addario so I can't say which is better

I like Elixir nanowebs .12

They last long and are easy to play. I have a cheap guitar (my first) so they make my guitar sound as good as can be. Plus they last a long time. The only drawback is their price.

D'addario EXP 17s. Try them. They will be the last strings you try. Trust me.
Peace,
