    Hi every1, i'm new here, im using a Yonex Nanospeed 9000x, I like to play offensive and i love the loud noise my racket produces! I need better power and control(louder noise too) can anyone tell me what string should i use? I usually go for 21lbs, i got another racket which is a Yonex Ti-10, can any1 tell me what string should i use for this racket too? Thanks!:D

    It's also twice as much. NBG-95 is great value - in every way almost as good as 98 (better in terms of durability) and it's half the price.

    NBG95 and NBG98 doesn't have excellent control compared to other strings. I would recommend using BG85, BG80 or BG66 for power and control

    last night I played with my BG85 & BG80 strrung rackets - the BG85 I loved.

    I was however hitting night on everything out the back of the court - just need to get used to the extra power generated.

    Hey, that's a change. :p:p:p.

    I did find the NBG98 too slippery for me. My favourite string is still BG80 :D:D:D.

    Since i am on a budget i use the NBG series since they last much longer than BG80, BG85 and BG66. Yes it does cost more but the durability is much higher.

    well, I am also new here haha
    95 and 98 are good strings,but the performance would be felt in high tension, like 26lbs or more
    If you like to play offensive, 21lbs maybe a really low tension.
    you can try 23lbs or more, the tension will alwasys decrease 10% in a week after you string.
    I suggest you to try YYbg80. that a nice offensive line.and you will get the feeling of high tension but only string a low tension.
    In my mind, 2rd ti-10 with BG80 is one of the best combination
