about aoud string tension


Dear friends,
just an opinion.
Does someone tell me if the aoud string-tension of La bella, Daddario, Pyramid Tomanstik strings are at the best? In other worlds, are tensions ok or too slack, or too stiff? This will help very much my work: I am still work on some nylgut aoud sets: I am not sure what gauges to make to obtain the right working tension.
I look La bella strings Turkish tuning too thin while Daddario a bit thicker. Which are the best?
Unfortunately I am a renaissance lute player...

Mimmo:)
