As a result of its small diameter, DP02B responds much faster than DP02 . Due to the steel core, the string achieves pitch stability immediately after being strung and offers a very high level of resistance to bow pressure. The chrome winding makes it extremely corrosion-resistant and bestows the string with a particularly long lifespan. It also reduces buzz tones (= small wolf tone).

It has a higher dynamic range than DP02 , however, it also features a decreased tonal modulation capacity, which is a typical characteristic of a steel string. After a break-in period of around five hours, NO.DP02B becomes a touch more brilliant and open. This supports the brilliance of the E-string, but can also induce whistling in sensitive Estrings such as DP01AU or DP01PT .
