Weiss Cannon Silverstring 1.20 or Mosquito Bite 1.19 for dense 18x20

Does anyone have experience with both strings on the player's racket with 18x20 dense string pattern?

I know there're better strings but can anyone recommend one of these?

Don't know exactly what you're looking for, but if you're looking for comfort and control try Prince Warrior response mains and pro supex synthetic gut spiral Flex for crosses. I String the mains at 52 lb and the crosses at 54 lb on my prince tour 100 18x20 racket

I used both in my signature racquet. WCSS was very firm @50. WCMB was more comfortable, even 2 lbs. tighter @52. But with WCMB practicing serves produced a mild, persistent golfer's elbow. They both are reviewed by many as excellent cross strings.

I have a year old pack of mosquito bite that I've never strung up...

Maybe I need to go into experiment mode with these sets I have in inventory like Ultra Cable and Mosquito Bite...

I'm now using Silverstring full bed. I really like it (I'm satisfied almost 100% with it) but I need a bit more power from my string bed. My current racquet is pt630 (quite comfortable frames) and I hope Mosquito will add some juice. There're no 12m packages here. Thin strings live untill dead in my racquets so I prefer <1.20 gauges. I found a 200m reel of blue Mosquito in 1.19 gauge. Also I would try Kirschbaum Pro Line II 1.18, but I'm not sure about it.

I use 1.25 Silverstring at 50 lbs. (probably 47-48 by now) on my Pure Aero Tour. Had it for about 10 months. Still plays fine. Great power and plenty of spin, no elbow problems. Pretty much does what I want it to do.

Pro Line II does not have any power since it is pre-stretched. I would use a 17 Ga or 1.25 mm string. DT will be lower vs 1.20-1.18 mm for given ref tension and that will provide a more lively string bed.
