Default 06 Mathews Strings?

What's the general consensus of Mathews strings for 06 bows now that they are using 452X material? I was told that they are not pre-stretched.

452x doesn't stretch really. so tons of tension isn't necessary, but still a good idea to serve under 200# of tension. you'd think they'd be better, but they're sure keeping me in business and i'm gratetful.

I'd heard pretty good things about the new Barracuda strings on their XT... is this not the case?
