    I am a little bit confused. People say that at900p has more control than the at900t. If that's the case, why would yonex label it for power if it has more control than the technique?

    After reading the other threads, it was a bit confusing since others claim that at900p has more control.

    i don't know which threads you have been reading, but it's been known that AT900T has better control than the P.

    Everyone has his/her own preference, and Yonex's naming, catalog, comparison chart, etc are just for reference only. If AT900P suits better for some players better than AT900T, it's completely normal.

    If you need to choose in between these 2 rackets, get your own hand on both rackets, and demo both. Then, you will come up with your own choice of racket.

    Demo the racquet and find out yourself. According to Yonex, the stiffer shaft will give you better control. Also box trame is better at resisting the torq of the smash. I can not confirm anything because I have no equipments to test them now...

    Ok, thanks a lot. One more question, how durable is the armortec 900(both)? Can it be strung to about 28lbs?

    If it's 3U, 28lbs should be fine.
