Just wondering if anyone here has tried DRs Drop down tuning strings on a fiver? see bottom of this link.  
My new covers band plays everything a semitone down (singers voice) so I'm finding the B and E strings are a little loose . Been using DR black beauties for years and I'm heppy with DRs quality. Just thinking the DDT set should tighten everything up.
 
edit - would be looking at their 45-125 set
