Default WILSON KPRO OPEN Vs. WILSON NPRO OPEN ????

Sorry for my English! hope that I understand.
I'm from Argentina,'m playing with an open npro does something more than 6 months and bought the kpro open.
I have the 2 bats and feel some differences.
I want to know whether those who have used the open npro feel the same differences that I open with the kpro.
1 - npro open the more solid feel, has no head of the racket so light.
2 - npro has more open feel.
3 - kpro open fired the ball less.
4 - the open kpro is more crisp
5 - with the kpro open does not feel the ball when hit the ball with force.

Actually I've noticed that are different rackets 2. I can not say that they are similar.
In this racket in particular I'm not sure that technology has overtaken k factor nCode technology, at least in the version of the racket npro open.
I think the nfoam that uses technology nCode is strange in technology kfactor.
that you think?

The kpro is heavier, softer (less stiff), and uses a denser string pattern on a smaller head.

Both racquets have about the same swing weight. I did not like the npro because it seems too light to hit with good pace/spin. I either got no pace/ or had to over swing.

I think the K pro hase even less power. I think it is more of a serve and volley racquet. Accurate, but very low powered.

You couldn't be more wrong.

The kPro is lighter, uses the same string pattern and has the same size head. You really should do a little more research before posting.

I actually liked the Npro Open more. Lots of spin. I just couldn't find that with the Kpro. But of course, it's just me. And also, for me, I found the Kpro to give more control.

I noticed less power in the kpro and more crisp that npro open, which really is not with the 2 stay. I would like those who have played with 2 tell me if they felt the npro stronger than that of kpro line basis (baseline). It is true that the kpro looks like a draw and raqieta of volea.
Greatly appreciates the comments, much to help users!

I find the Npro open better. I can customize it to my liking.

I think that people who have used the open kpro not like them as much as npro open.
The other day I pay my kpro open a friend who plays with npro open makes more than 1 year and did not like it.
kpro really is a good racket, but I think that has not exceeded the npro open, instead of nblade users are very happy with the new kblade.
Not so with users npro therefore are not happy with the new kpro.
You think?

I believe you're talking about the kpro tour not the kpro open, which is the racquet the OP is refering to
