I am in the process of demoing racquets and would like to understand how the following racquets compare to each other

AeroPro Drive GT vs Pure Drive GT

AeroPro Storm GT vs Pure Storm GT

Currently, I am playing with a Wilson nCode 6.1 and am fairly happy with it, but it is time to start looking for a replacement. I am looking for something with more spin, a little lighter, and maybe a little more power. I very briefly hit with an old Pure Drive and wasn't a fan of the "hallow" feel, so I am curious how the two series compare in this regard.

I just had a thread on apdc vs pdgt, granted that it's not apdgt which is only stiffer than its previous gen counterpart.

basically aeropro drive is lighter, more hallow than pd. But that (tinny, hallow) only happens if you don't have a fast, competent swing, meaning your swing is slow and weak enough to let the ball give a lot of feedback to the rackets. These aren't hefty rackets that can be used for its plowness.

So the aero version is lighter and more hallow feeling? The specs show the aero as slightly heavier (static and swing weight).
