Need Advice From Technifibre Experts

I recently tried out a Tfight 315 DC Ltd 18x20. It was a little too muted for me, but has peaked my interest in Technifibre. There are three models I am interested in. One new and two older ones. The first is the new Tfight XTC 305. I am very interested in it's string pattern, but am concerned about it being too muted like the 315 ltd.
The next one is the older Dynacore Tfight 305 with the same 18x19 pattern, but it has a constant beam and a 95 sq inch head (and stiffer).
The last racquet I believe is from the same Dynacore line. It is the Tfight 320 with the 16x20 pattern, and a 97 sq inch head. Can anyone compare these racquets for me please? I would love to know about maneuverability, plow, and crisp vs muted feels. And also about leading them up, as I would assume at least one of the 305's will need weight. Thanks in advance!

I wouldn't call myself a Tecnifibre expert however I have tried the Tflash 300ps and the Tfight 320 dynacore 18x19. They are a bit muted compared to my customised Head Graphene 360 Speed pro. TBH I would wait around June for news cause Tecnifibre is releasing a new line replacing the Tflash 300 PS. If not i would go for the Tfight 320 with the 16x20 pattern, and a 97 sq inch (This would be more feel oriented and have more plow and heft).

Yeah, I'm leaning toward that one. Though I would add lead to the 305 for more heft and plow. I have never used an 18x19 pattern before, so I'm curious. But have hit many 16x20 yonexes, and various 18x20 sticks. Was hoping 18x19 would be best of both worlds. And was hoping to see if anyone had hit with all three of these to find out which had a crisp feel.

To begin there is no H in Tecnifibre. The older 320 ATP racket were very similar to the 315 Limited racket and came in both 16M and 18M versions with a 95 si head size. This series of rackets were not foam filled and had a shot of silicone in the butt and a leather grip.

The newer 305 and 320 rackets both have only an 18M version neither come in a 16M version only an 18x19 both share the same grommet set. So the original post makes me wonder. As far as how muted the racket feel it could also be the strings and or tension.

To me I like the T Fight Limited XTC in the 16/19 out of all the current racquets in the range and then I have to go back to 2013 when the had the T Fight 325.
The reason I like the limited is because it's the most comfortable and traditionally feeling frame they currently have. The others feel stiff and light with the saving grace that they are foam filled which takes the edge off the stiffness.

I don't know why my brain and typing fingers want to put an H in Tecnifibre, just does for some reason. Thanks for the info on the models with no foam. I have yet to find a foam filled racquet I feel connected to.

Normally I do not like any kind of vibration dampener in my strings. I like to hear the strings pinging when I hit the ball. I once tried Alpha Gut 2000 and the string was so muted I felt I had to cut the strings out after hitting for 2 minutes. I don’t know what it was about the 320 XTC, I stung it with Black Code at 40 lbs (18 lbs lower than normal) and I found myself tying a #64 rubber band in the strings down low about 1/4” from the frame. Go figure.

The string I had on my Tfight 315 Ltd was definitely a big part of the problem. But I don't have a way to string things myself, and i didn't want to drop more money into stringing it, since it was foam filled.

I know the others definately are
That would depend on what you are talking about when you say "the others." The 2013 Limited series are not foam filled and the older 16M and 18M 320 rackets are not foam filled. The LTD rackets and the 320 XTCs are foam filled.

I'm specifically talking about the XTC range which I cut up to check. They were foam filled.
