I used to change out factor supplied spectra lines with Q line when it wore out. Q line works very well with the added advantage that you don't need to sew sleeves over the loops as with spectra lines. You do need to prestretch Q line, then cut it to length and simply tie loops with figure 8 knots and you're good to go. Bulk rolls of Q line used to be less costly than buying specta line sets, not sure if it still is.
