My review is for the Golden Set Power Cord 17 Black.
This string is very playable for a poly, it is soft on the arm and gives a very nice pop when hitting. The string also produces a good amount of spin even though its not a textured string. You will not be dissapointed, you will like this poly string if you want a feel thats in the middle of soft and firm.

Thanks

So for the last seven years I have been using Golden Set products. I have my own stringing machine which I originally bought just so I could tie my own tennis strings but has turned into doing work for others as well. It’s been nice to be able to order a selection of strings as well as grips and over grips for a great price and they work equal to the “big name” brands. I have found both the Secure Grip and the Elan Grip to work well. Over grips have been a great addition for me as they work great and I use them as a small bonus I send with the rackets for some of my consistent customers. For many years I used the Maximal 17 and loved the feel that the string gave me. But being a heavy topspin baseline player was looking for a little more from my string and had tried several different setups when I finally got around to trying there Power Cord 17(full bed). This is a great string, pockets the ball well, easy on the arm and a little extra spin on the ball is always good. Durability is better then some of the other strings I have used. I also like that Golden Set has a Canadian outlet. Orders are accurate and shipping is prompt. Thank you and I look forward to continue doing business with you.

The golden set power cord is a very interesting string.
It got the durability of any polyester string but what makes it my favorite to play with is its flexibility.
Softer feeling than regular polyster ones.Thank you!

I use several times the power cord string 17 and I personally love it! Because it's a good combination between the elasticity, the spin and the power. Exactly what I needed. Since I use this string I improved my game! It's worthy to try it!

I have been stringing racquets for 30 years and used many different brands of string . I have found Golden Set to be the best string that I have ever put in a racquet and more importantly for me the best feeling string that I have ever played with . I particularly like the Power Cord and have used it in various combinations with Snake - Bite and Hex Poly . Wish Golden set made a 18 in the Power Cord but the 17 does a great job in the mains mixed with 18 Hex Poly or 17 Snake-Bite .
I can string my racquets 5 to 8 lbs. above normal tension and still maintain feel , control , and power .

The following is a review of snake bite 17, hex poly 17 and power cord 17.

I am a home stringer along with my dad and both of us have been using golden set products for a few years now. The Snake Bite 17 has amazing bite and durability for a 17 gauge, comparible to black code or RPM blast. The hex poly is similar to some other hexagonal shapes strings like solinco tour bite. Finally, I was super impressed by the power cord, so soft and crisp and has a nice feel and pop. All in all, golden set has surpassed my expectations for how well priced it is, and continues to be a preference from customers using name brand string all over town. Will be trying hybrid setups with some of the syn guts soon.

I have been using both Snake Bites and Hex Polys consistently for years now. Both make great hybrid setups as well as stand alone full bed setups. I just tried a couple sets of the Power Cord and now it too has made it into the rotation. I was going through the Snake Bites and Hex Polys pretty quickly probably because I was playing with the 17g on my 16x19 Babolat, so I decided to try the 16g Power Cord and never looked back. I was surprised at how soft they were, so my touch shots felt amazing especially coming from a 16g string, but make no mistake the pop was definitely still there when you needed it. I strung it at mid tension with my first set just to see how well the tension held up and 9 hours later after some heavy hitting the drop wasn't bad at all. I then strung up the second set at my normal tensional 50lbs and couldn't be happier with the performance, durability and of course price point.

I am pleased with the 17 gauge co-poly string. Had my racket strung at 50 pounds to improve spin and velocity and it seems to be working as well or better than the same string I purchased from more expensive vendors. Thank you.

Hi, invest in a reel of Golden Set Power Cord. It's a nice, soft, Co-Poly that gives you excellent feel, precision, touch, and spin. It's also extremely durable and will seem fresh for MONTHS.

String the Power Cord at around 50 lbs (+/-) tension, and for the Crosses use a nice but also inexpensive Synthetic Gut or Multifilament at around 2 lbs higher tension.

I would like to write a review for the Golden Set Powercord Black 17 gauge:

I have been buying the power cord for over 7 years. It is a comfortable string that gives good spin and playability. I recommend string it 54 pounds or below of you have a racquet of at max 100 sq in. If bigger I recommend stringing at least 57. It also surprised me that this string provided good tension maintainance as compared with snake bite.

Thanks

I string rackets for many players. I have turned every mail player to use Snake Bite strings, I use 16G for the mains and 17G for the cross, every body likes it. For most of my female players I use Power Cord or a combination or Snake Bite and Power Cord. I do not carry any other strings and I have used all of them, my inventory is limited to just those two strings, every body loves them.

Golden set keeps producing excellent string. Power Chord holds tension and helps to generate spin better than competitors strings. This is a must have!!! A superior string at a superior price!
