I think that setup you propose is going to be too powerful unless you have it at least 62 lbs Lux Ace or Timo 18 and 64+ lbs syn gut. The Aeropro is a very springy racquet and Ace has a lot of power. Combine Ace with syn gut adds even more power.

Using full Lux Ace at 61 is better than using synthetic gut, because the Ace will loosen and get even more power. Trust me. Ace is one of my favorite strings, but I know it's drawbacks.

Yes, they are one and the same. Full Ace at 60 or 61 has a crisp but pleasant feel. There still is some give also. Another string that alot of customers like for a less crisp but smoother feel is Kirschbaum Pro Line 2. I would use the 16L gauge (1.25) version at 60 lbs.

Sounds like a very good combo, Arianne. You will love it. It's gonna play smooth and crisp at the same time.
