Re: violin strings question ?
If you are still having issues with the E string, try using a Jargar Forte (heavy) e-string. It seems to work well on a lot of violins, you can buy the single E for about $5 typically. Violinists often mix and match strings, trying to find the optimal combination. The E string is the toughest.
For "warm" strings on a fiddle I like Thomastik "reds", Obligatos are also super warm, both to these are pricey string sets sadly.
