Help with LM Prestige Mid

PurePrestige

Semi-Pro
I need some advice as to how to string my LM Prestige Mid.
I previously strung with TNT 16g at 68lbs.
Now I have them strung with a hybrid, Head Ultra Tour mains at 62lbs and TNT crosses at 60lbs.

What i'm trying to get out of it is best described I guess as a crisp feel. I love the racquet except the stringbed feels a little too springy with the hybrid still. Sort of like I can't really swing fast without the springy stringbed becoming unstable.
Sorry if it's hard to understand what I mean.

Should I increase the tension on my hybrid? I like the way it played both with high tension Syn Gut and with this lower tensioned Hybrid. But I want something that is kind of both I guess.
I was also thinking about trying out a full Multi job. Was going to use Gamma Livewire ESP at a high tension like 72 maybe. I used to use multi at 67 on my i.Prestige.

I'm really not sure what to do, but I need to get back to where I can really swing out when I get the point set up. Right now I can't really finish points off with a bang.

Thanks in advance for any help, this is driving me crazy.

IMO, the prestige series provides a really great and consistent platform for various string combinations. It is also a very consistent performer - relatively flexible by today's standards and a dense string pattern. It changes dramatically with string types. I would just say to myself, what do I want and supply the string and tension.For a more dead feeling, my best bet has been Prince Tournament Nylon 15L or Gamma marathon very tight or a real dead Poly. IMO, the monofilament holds tension better. But it seems that you can really change thios frame's personality with hybrids and string types. Hope this helps - trust your instinct -read a few feedback reviews and dial in the right tension, IMHO.

Try RIP Control 17. I've used Tecnifibre Promix/Biphase and Kirschbaum Competition and nothing comes close.
