Value Multifilament

[2handsbothsides]

Can someone compare the following multifilament strings?

Prince Synthetic Gut Multifilament
Technifibre Multi Feel
Babolat Addiction
Prince Premier Softflex

I am looking for the following characteristics in order of priority; arm friendly, good tension maintenance, good control and power in a value multi if possible.

At the moment I'd rank them this way, given the priority you stipulated:

1. Prince Premier with Softflex
2. Babolat's Addiction - While not so soft as MultiFeel, deserved #2 for its overall consistency and feel.
3. Tecnifibre's MultiFeel
4. PSGM

P.S. And there is a noticeable drop-off with PSGM, too.

2handsbothsides, if you haven't looked into Pro Supex Maxim Touch, I'd highly recommend it if you are looking for a great value multi, that is relatively low powered (* relative to other multis). IMO it's better than all those listed. Great grab on the ball, durable for a multi, and stays in place better than any other multi I've tried. (until it's about to break of course)

But, to comment on your original list, this is where I'd put them:

1. Babolat Addiction
2. Prince Synthetic Gut Multifilament
3. Technifibre Multi Feel
4. Prince Premier Softflex

- Softflex feels great fresh, but it's durability is really low. I just can't recommend it based on that.
- PSGM is a great all around value multi. Does everything fairly well.
- Multifeel is cool string. I just don't like how it wears.. picky I know, but hey. Nice grab on the ball though.
- Addiction is a very good all around string. Too powerful for me, but I think it's a nicely constructed string for those that like high powered string.
