K95 vs HPS 6.1

I did some search, but nothing really clear came up. I only have a vague impression that K95 has more of a traditional feel like the hyperprostaff 6.1 than the n95. I still don't like the n95's muted feel, and find it way too powerful. Plus it's a tad too light.

I love my hyperprostaff 6.1, the midplus version with 16x18 string pattern. But it's really getting hard to find a backup. I think maybe it's time for me to move on.

So I'm hoping someone who played extensively with the hps and k95 can help me decide if I should give it a try or not. BTW, play testing is not an option where I live.

1st. How does the feel compare?

2nd. I read that k95 is even more powerful than n95. Is it in a hollowy-sling shot type of power? I mean the n95 felt kind of hollow to me.

3rd. If it's that powerful, should I get the 18x20 version? Maybe this could tone down the power? I hit with plenty of spin, and I could generate topspin from a 18x20 string bed.

4th. The part that hps impressed me the most is it's solid feel and stability, I could take a good whack at the ball with full confidence. I mean, can I find this solid feel and stability(maybe cause of the weight?) in k95? I have a k90, and with some lead around the top makes it very solid. Yet it becomes a little hard to move around on quick exchanges. So I was thinking could the k95 fit this category ( a little bit lighter yet very stable)?

Thanks in advance!
