Can you compare Cyber Blue to Pro Line Evolution?

My tension for Cyber Blue 17L (1.22) is 52 lbs. in an Aerogel 200. Does the Evolution 1.25 play similar? Is it softer or stiffer? I now have a set of Evolution and I'd like to know what tension I should string it at in the same racquet, with it being one gauge thicker than the Cyber Blue?

Much appreciated

I am assuming you are referencing Kirschbuam P L Evolution and TopSpin Cyberblue. K P L E is stiffer (and thicker) i would most likely go 2 - 3 lbs lower to stay around your own preferred stringbed dynamic tension. Also Evolution seems to have better tension maintenance, but less lively that CyberBlue ( more dead-ish feeling - to me). Going even a bit lower might make it a bit more livelier.. up to you...just a guide...

Thanks CX

Plus Power 1.23 is great @51, just not very good tension maintenance in the Aerogel 200. Now I'm thinking of going with 50 lbs. on the Evolution, since it's pre-stretched, and since Evolution is a blue string and will probably have a soft feel. And the Aerogel's flex @63 is a little stiffer than my other 200s, so the flex will feel compatable for me with a little bit firmer string bed. Some considerations cancel out.
