String reccomendation for Roger's racket

I have Wilson kfactor tour and I have used sensation 17 and NXT 17 both on

tension 59. Sensation broke very easily (As soon as I hit balls from baseline to

baseline, I could feel the strings um... don't know what verb to use but feeling

that this string is weak). And on the other hand NXT lasted more than sensation

but from swinging back hard from a decent serve from my oppoent broke the

string. I should have just slowed down swing speed and block the ball but I

didn't and also the string on far right side broke not the sweet spot so probably

because of that. Anyway NXT was pretty good to me and I don't know what string to try for my racket. Seems like strings for the racket has to be strong?:confused:
I would like price range from $5~15 around that.
 
I bought my first K90 with Sensation 17 and the strings were quite frayed after going out just once. Sensation gives you a lot of pop but you'd better have your own stringing machine if you plan to use it regularly. After that I played around with poly at 53 pounds - it was a little tight for my liking. I then tried 17 and 18 guage poly at 46 and 47 pounds. These played great at first but the poly lost its tension and felt like a fishing net. The thinner poly also didn't have the durability of my old standby Luxilon 16 guage.

Roger plays with a mix of Luxilon and Gut which is a pretty expensive way to go. If you don't have any arm problems, you might try a poly strung in the low-50s. This should give you durability and playability.
 
not in your price range but how about wilson gut in the mains and alu rough in the crosses . works for roger
 
roger made 47 unforced errors today against djokovic and i think he'd make less if he had poly on mains and syn on crosses. however i don't think i know more than him coz he's a gr8 champ and one of the GOAT and im not

he has used that setup for so long and so now because he made 47 unforced errors today you think he should switch? yeah right.:rolleyes:
 
Could you guys please let me know the price, description(functions, characteristics), brand of the strings those you are telling me?
And when you say ___ @ 48. this means ___ string tension at 48?

By the way, my swings with k tour with NXT 17 @ 59 seems like popping the balls when I hit soft. Well, it's not popping as I said when I extend and use all the arm. On the other hand, for my ncode6.1 95 i don't have to extend much arm as i have to with kfactor to generate more power with comfort. is it due to the frame?
Anyway, I would like a string that is quiet cheap, durable(durable that I don't get the feeling of "oh, if I would've put power more power on that last shot, I sure was gonna break the string"), able to generate power and spin.
