    All things being equal (string, tension, player:)), 900P edges the others out - it is the stiffest and has the most head weight.

    Having said this, they are all probably within 5% each other.

    there is little chance that AT900P is stiffer than NS9000X.

    FYI, from my source, NS9000-x has stiffest shaft of all Yonex racquets right now. A900-p might feel stiffer for some people because of the shorter shaft.

    I'd say AT900P sit the top out of three.It might not be the stiffest,but it's surely the head heaviest out of three..

    Of the three, I have to say NS-9000 X produce the most push on the shuttle among NS-9000 X and AT-900 P.

    So the ARC10 power does not beat the NS9000X and AT900P?

    Let me correct an error in my post earlier. It should be:

    I have to say NS-9000 X produce the most push on the shuttle among NS-9000 X and AT-900 P.

    Looking at how ZB played in the last AE2008,this arc 10 might perform way below AT700,which he used to use,in terms of power..so does AT900P,since there's only slight difference between 700 n 900P.The arc 10 might not be the good answer for someone who's seeking for more power n those who love to smash hard.:)

    I have not tried the arc 10, but I have tried the AT900P and NS9000X at same tensions, both 3UG5, as well as the same strings. The AT900P produced the most power for me of the two. In theory, it would make sense that the NS9000X being the stiffest should be able to produce the most power if you have the arm of god. In practice, I've sold my NS9KX so I could buy a new mother board :D

    Arc10 or AT-900T

    Hi
    I am in search for a good racket with good control and much power.

    I mostly play singels, power is importent as well as a good control.
    Mostly I play with well placed power hits but also some very controlled hits.
    Always played with AT-500 very satisfied (now pre-broken:crying:) but now in search for racket with more power and control:D.

    I have tested AT-900T but want a little more power, a very good racket.
    Has the Arc10 also same control but more power then AT-900T ?
    I cannot choose please help.

    Thanks

    If i were u,i would choose for AT900T..SOme said that Arc10 is not that offensive enough.LOL..i never tried one though.Dont underestimate AT900T..it's built with head heavier than the Arc10.Its BP is around 30-31cm..u'll not lose the power during smashes..but still has a very good control.An all round racket!!

    u don't know

    i choose Arcsaber 10.. ..:) ,, at900p i tried, pretty slow racket, slow swing , and it only fit single, only a idiot use it for double... nano9000 is a even banlance racket. but arcsaber 10 has more power since it's slightly head heaiver than nano9000...

    in conclusion: Arcsaber10 = power + faster swing + faster attacking+ softer feeling..........

    if u don't belive go do some research for all the rackets..:D

    I have tried all the rackets and ARC 10 is the weakest for me. AT900P and NS9000X have about the same power for me.

    dude, u understand me?

    hey, how did u find out arc10 is the weakest for u? from the feeling?? let me teach u a lesson, Arc 10 is not as stiff as ns9000x and at900p..because yonex make it a softer feeling for control.. maybe the stiffness make u feel more powerful? dude, stiff doesn't mean power.....

    the fact is Arc10 is more powerful than ns9000x for sure...:eek:

    watch what you say dude !!!!

    I use AT900P for double ...and so one or 2 other pro players like Markis Kido and Chandra I think.....does this mean these pro players are idiots ??!!!:eek::eek:

    Just watch what you say.....:mad::mad::mad::mad:
    Racket is just a tool and everyone has his/her own style of play and racket preferences.....end with anger....:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: !!!

    Oh yes, BTW, I have tried/tested all those rackets to name a few Arc10/Ti10 new and old,NS900X/AT900T/AT900P/AT800of/def etc

    Sorry but that's not the point....
    the POINT here is why you are calling people using AT900P for double IDIOTS ???!!!!

    Why tell me why...???!!!

    Surely I can say you are a complete IDIOT because you using ARC10 .....simply because how many people using Arc10 if you were to go by percentage of people using Arc10 and how many are NOT...

    Like I said before, people have their own right to use whatever racket that suits them in whatever games be it double or single. I believe most people here in BC would agree with me

    ....but calling people IDIOT because they use certain type of racket for certain game play is NOT right .....word!!!!
