Yonex VCore Si 100 and Yonex Ezone Ai 100

Anyone have any idea which racquet has more power on groundstrokes?
I haven't tried either yet but am planning to demo one or both.
I use multifilament strings and would prefer the more powerful of the two.
Tennis Warehouse describes the new Yonex VCore Si 100 as being for
someone with a "full stroke style". They describe the Yonex EZone Ai 100
as being for someone with a "medium-full stroke style".
That makes me think that TW believes the EZone Ai 100
has more power than the VCore Si 100.
Has anyone hit with both racquets with the same type of strings so we can compare?

I think either would have ample power so you should decide on other criteria.

Chief among them is swing weight. The si requires long, quick strokes whereas the higher swing weight of the zone may allow for a slower stroke style for similar levels of power.

I've played extensively with a predecessor of the si and it is a little pure drive-ish, whereas the ezone is modelled after the apd.

If someone uses a slower stroke style with the latest Yonex EZone Ai 100, and still gets a similar level of power as the new Yonex VCore Si 100, doesn't that mean that the Ezone
is a more powerful racquet than the VCore?
 
Stiffness of VCore

I just noticed that the new Vcore SI 100 has a TW stiffness
rating of 71. That's so high I would be afraid to demo it.
(I have elbow problems).
The EZone Ai 100 has a TW stiffness rating of 68,
which is OK. But I'd stlll be curious to know
which racquet has more power on groundstrokes using
multi strings.
