What's the right racket for me?

Hi all,
I'm looking to purchase a new racket soon....
I am an intermediate player wanting to improve and I play 1/2 times a week with feather and plastic shuttlecocks.
I'd class myself as an all round player who likes to mostly smash but also likes playing precise drops and net shots.
I play both singles and doubles
My budget is around £55 to £60
After lots of research I came across the yonex voltric 7 which I think suits my playing style.
Are there any other rackets that you guys recommended?
Also, not sure what string tension to use, I had a racket with 24lbs and the strings kept on breaking when I smashed.
Should I reduce the string tension or continue with 24lbs and hope for the best?

Thanks
Tarun
 
There is a special part of the forum for racket recommendations, please post there next time.

Voltric 7 sounds like it could work for you. Or slightly less heav heavy like the duora 77 or victor thruster k600 could also work for you.

22-24 lbs sounds fine, but if the string breaks easy you could try a thicker string (bg65 or zymax 70 perhaps).

Good luck!
