Nice racquet, I just got it but I have to sell it. I think it is fairly comfortable but I need to use the pro K 5 because of arm issues. Also check out tennis warehouse comments section, google it because it isn't up now. I'd string it 60 or below. If poly 58 or below, kevlar even lower. good power and you can learn to control it. Surprisingly good at hitting accurate shots especially down the line.

Use the search function mon... Cliche speaking, visualize a pure drive with better feel and control.
On the strings side of things, I've tried 3 setups thus far:
1. Came with Mfil 16 at about 60 lbs. Hit like a board, cut it out after 2 hours.
2. NRG mains, SPPP crosses, both 17g. Much better, but still too stiff
3. SPPP mains, NRG crosses. Incredible difference. Pockets well, great power potential, very good control, good touch. Spin production is much better, but will be even better when I get the right combination of string and tension dialed in.
In all cases, the 500 T is a control, accuracy, powerful racquet. To me it isn't harsh at all, kind of a combination of stiff but dampened.
