Confidential vs Tourna Big Hitter Silver 7 Tour

Hi,
How would you compare those two strings? I really like BHS7T (1.25) and am planning to try Confidential but in 1.20 (I'd love BHS7T to be available in thinner gauges). I played with Hyper G 1.15 before and liked it, but with Tourna I feel more connected to the ball, Hyper G seemed to springy sometimes. I wonder how Confidential but in 1.20 or even 1.15 compares to Tourna - have you tried both and noticed any differences?
I play with Clash 100.
 
My impression would be that these two strings are a lot more similar than they are different. Both control oriented and on the stiffer end of the spectrum. Both offer a crisp feedback feel and maintain tension and playability well.

Where they are different would be that S7T feels a bit livelier, with a bit of spring and pop that Confidential doesn't have, but pays the price in being a bit non-linear in how the ball comes off the strings throughout the range of swing speeds. S7T can feel a bit more powerful than expected for volleys off hard hit balls whereas Confidential gives you exactly what you would expect.

Because I used a pretty muted racquet (SW104 with Countervail), that extra bit of liveliness was something I wanted. Both are good strings.
