Review of: Power Cord tennis string (go to product details)
Date Added: By: Winston Trac, Ottawa, ON, Canada Rating: 5/5  This past few years, my bother and I enjoyed playing with the Poly, Hex Poly and Snake Bite from Golden Set. These poly strings are good just as the named brands for about one-third of the cost. We really like them in a hybrid setup with an Optinum or Syn Gut. But this summer, the Power Cord has became my go-to string. With a softer feel, I like to use them as a full bed. Truly, it gives me a perfect blend of power and control. Highly recommended!

Date Added: By: Alan B. - St. Augustine Florida Rating: 4/5  The best non-multi filament string I have ever tried. I used it as a main in a hybrid with Gosen Micro in the crosses; easy spin and great tension maintenance. Going to try it next as a full set.

Date Added: By: john Rating: 5/5 I have had the power cord strings for two weeks. I like the feel and spin control I get from them. I have a tension meter and the tension drop the first day which is normal, however since then it has gone down one pound in two weeks. This is the first strings I have tried from Golden Set, I which I would have found them sooner. Thanks, John

Date Added: By: Harrison West Rating: 5/5 Love this string. I'm about a 5.0 right now though have played open tournaments, and I find this to be a great balance between power and control. I'm very comfortable at net with this string, knowing the string-bed will be consistent for tough volleys. Serve power and placement is unparalleled. Thanks for making a great string!

Date Added: By: Dan Chin, Flushing, NY Rating: 5/5 According to my 16 year-old son, a 6.5 competitive player, the hybrid Power Cord 16g (main) and Synthetic Gut, 16 g. (cross) strung at 57lbs, performs better than the Donnay CoPoly and X-Micro, 16g. I'm informed that Golden Set Hydrid "feels softer; it allows him to pocket and control high-velocity balls when hitting and returning them during intensive training with his group from the USTA High Performance Junior Development Program at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Center, NTC, Flushing, NY, the official venue for the U.S. Open.

Date Added: By: mark marcia Rating: 5/5 I have been using Golden Set products for a few years now, and have tried almost all their string. I was loyal to hex poly, but after giving power cord a shot, I have now switched. Whether you use it as a hybrid, or a full bed, power cord will deliver. It has a much softer feel, without sacrificing power or spin. And with the price of a reel, you cannot go wrong. Thank you golden set!! You have once again given us a great product at a great price.

Date Added: By: Gabriel Berretta, Vancouver, B.C. Rating: 5/5 I bought the Power Cord 16 Reel (660ft/200m) not long ago. Shipping to my apartment in Vancouver took 3 days and I didn't have to drive to the US to pick it up. These strings are the best I had so far in last 3 years for my Wilson BLX. They last longer and I feel in control when hitting the ball. When hitting it stays longer in contact with the racket and allows me to make last adjustments. I 've been taught to play tennis on red clay and these strings bring back memories of fast paced controlled tennis. I recommend these strings to advanced players.
Review of: Power Cord tennis string (go to product details)
Date Added: By: Freddie Asis Rating: 5/5 Just used up my 2 snake bite strings from the poly sampler i bought last month (please refer to my 09/12 review) and am now to the power cord. Stringing is a delight for the softer power cord. I strung my Dunlop 4D100 with power cord 17 (mains @ 52 lbs) and tourna big hitter blue rough 16 (crosses @ 50 lbs), and the tension at mains right after stringing was measured (using gamma tension tester) at 52 lbs . 12 hours later (without hitting), the tension dropped to 50 lbs but settled there pretty much even after close to 10 hrs of play. The power cord ($6.01) is comparable, if not better than Luxilon ALU Power ($16.95) in all aspect i.e. power, tension maintenance, spin, durabilty, playability but the PRICE. Btw, one of the characteristics i like about the power cord and snake bite is that the mains barely moves even strung at the lower end of the spectrum (50-52 lbs). The snake bite did move after more than 25 hrs of play but it was mainly due to the synthetic crosses i used (silent partner flattened). Surprisingly, the tension on the mains was measured still at 50 lbs before i cut the snake bite. This simply means that it retained the tension very well. Freddie Asis USTA NTRP 4.0 Stockton, CA
Review of: Power Cord tennis string (go to product details)
Date Added: By: Harold Johnson, Macon, GA Rating: 5/5 Power cord is my new favorite for stringing. The feel really is softer, and I prefer it to other polyesters I have tried because it is easier on my arm (I have a mild case of tennis elbow). I have used this in the mains with classic in the crosses, but I switched back to using power cord in both the mains and crosses, and I notice very little difference in racket performance. As with all golden set products I have tried, it is a better value than other comparable strings (if there are any, I haven't found another polyester that plays comparbly soft).

Date Added: By: Denis Gregoire Rating: 5/5 I used the power cord (gauge 17) all summer on clay court. I strung at 50 pounds and it feel just great. Goog durability without the hard feel of polyester.

Date Added: By: Jason Tom Rating: 5/5 I received my goldenset order a few weeks ago and I am extremely happy with your products. I have been a goldenset customer for several years now. I normally blend snakebite and synthetic gut and decided to try your power cord. The power cord is a very playable string and generates a great deal of spin. Your prices are unbeatable and I am pleased to say that you have a customer for life. Thanks.
Review of: Power Cord tennis string (go to product details)
Date Added: By: Darren Hoeg Rating: 5/5 I'm an advanced player who breaks strings often. Several years ago I was looking for an economical soultion to my problem of having to replace strings frequently and came across GoldenSet, and decided to try them. I have been impressed with all of the Golden Set strings I have tried, and have used their Poly strings for the past two years. After experimenting with many Poly strings, I have found Golden Set's to be equivalent or better than other much more expensive brand name Polys. I recently tried Powercord, and I think this will be my new standard string. It really is softer than other polys I have used. It has excellent ball-pocketing; you can really feel the ball sink into the strings, and feel it being propelled off of them. This is what provides a player with "feel". They are more elastic, softer and better feeling than other mono-filament strings, and to me feel more like a high quality multi-filament, but with the spin and durability of a high quality poly. These are the perfect solution to those who like the usual characteristics of poly (high spin potential/durability) but don't like the stiffer feel usually associated with them. Great string!

Date Added: By: Ron Stinson Rating: 5/5 I tried the power cord 17 mains with syngut 17 on crosses. I am very impressed with the extra power and feel of the power cord 17. I have a compact stroke and have been playing with snake-bite 17 but may switch to the power cord for the extra pop.

Date Added: By: Tom Mayer Rating: 4/5 I purchased the new Power Cord 17 for my 15-year-old son's racquet. He has been using Snake Bite 17 and synthetic gut hybrid. I depend on him for feedback, and he says the Power Cord definitely delivers more power. He's a big hitter already and has decided to stick with the Snake Bite for better control. So, if someone is looking for more power, this string fits the bill. We will use the Power Cord when we string for his friends and teammates.

Date Added: By: Ron Andrews Rating: 5/5 I just purchased two packs of Power Cord 17 to experiment with. I strung my first racquet two weeks ago. Just so I could get a feel I strung it in the middle range for my racquet (Wilson pro open BLX). At first I thought it was a little tighter than I like. My plan was to only use it a couple of times and then remove it and try a hybrid with the Power cord and a synthetic gut. I have found it to play nice with a good balance between power and control. I am going to get a roll and try several different setups and hybrids to see how it performs. So far it is great by itself! I will report back with some alternate hybrids, tension, and stringing techniques. Looks like this might be a good string to have around.

Date Added: By: David Hou Rating: 4/5 I have been buying and using golden set strings for a few years now and the new power cord strings are softer and more comfortable than the snake bite strings. Compared with the snake bite strings, the power cord gave close to the same amount of spin, but it had a lot more power. So I recommend the power cord string for people who want a comfortable feel and more power in their game.

Date Added: By: George Horna, Head Pro, Riverside Tennis Club Rating: 5/5 I have been using the Golden Set Power Cord for a few weeks now, and I am very impressed with the feel of the string and its spin generation, quite an improvement on other poly strings I have used.
