RZR Rx is not at all a bad string. I demo'd it before it was known as RZR Rx. It's actually an oval shaped string, the idea being that where the mains intersect the crosses, there is less pressure,...

I COMPLETELY agree with this. Prestretching multis might sound like a good idea, but in my experience, it completely ruins all the great qualities of the string.

Can you speak to the "smoothness" with which the base clamps operate? How easily to they glide/slide. How about the string clamps?

Can you compare your experience to any other high-end machines?

Ah, this has jogged my memory! My first was not a Hip Hop. You're right; the HH has fixed clamps. Mine was an SP Swing, which was floating clamps.

Yeah, I would mostly agree with this description. It's feels stiffer and crisper to me. I like it alright (though it isn't my favorite). But I can understand how others might not like.
