Hi TT. I notice a major trend in racquets and strings is to use stiff tweener style racquets for power and then balance it by using stiff poly at high tensions. I don't see how people can think this is a good setup. It is bad for your arm, and defeats the purpose of having a powerful racquet. I think a better combination is a flexy racquet combined with poly at low tension which gives you more power, more dwell time and is much better for your arm. Tension is the biggest factor in determining stringed stiffness for ploys. For example even a very stiff poly like luxicon 4g or kirschbaum max power strung in the 40's is as comfortable as a soft poly strung in the high 60's.
