Solinco Confidential vs. Technifibre 4S

I've was playing with Ultracable.
Nice string, but too mushy too quickly.

Then, I tried Solinco Confidential.
Great spin, feel, control, but I can feel the shock and soreness after about 40 mins of play.

Thinking of trying 4S as a softer alternative, but hoping it's not as mushy as Ultracable or as stiff as Confidential.
Also, maybe I could stick with the Confidential and string it lower around 45-46lbs?

Any advice, experiences with these strings?
I am using the Confidential at 50lbs in a Speed MP presently.

I would drop the tension on Confidential to 46lbs first.

Then, if the problem persists, move to a softer poly, perhaps a Hyper G Soft.

Confidential itself isn't much stiffer than other poly's. The main reason it feels stiffer is the fact it does not lose much tension at all. String at a lower tension to start when using Confidential vs most other polys.

I just put Confidential 1.15mm in my VCore95 at 46.5lbs and didnt have any discomfort playing for more than an hour.

Last time I tried it, I think it was the 1.25mm in a previous generation VCore100 at 49lbs and it was definitely less comfortable.
