Thinking of getting a high end stringing machine and I've narrowed it down to these two choices. Both are around the same price and I'm wondering which one is better? Pros and cons? Things to note: - I will be stringing about 5-10 rackets a week. Occasionally more. - I will only be stringing badminton rackets - I am hoping that the stringing machine will last as long as possible with little maintenance
Technically both machine are the same. But I would go for Victor. The turntable looks more robust due to the big metal plate where the two towers are stand on. And also the machine looks more professional. The colors and form are more eyecatching. Just the size could be challenging.
they are both made by the same OEM so quality should be the same. honestly i think the victor looks nicer.
Thanks for the input, I didn't know they were made by the same OEM. I'll probably get the Victor machine.
A quick search on google shows that you can get the li-ning e5000 for 4299$ cad on shopbadmintononline, and 5200$ cad for victor on yumo.ca there's difference in price... of course now you think you will only string badminton racket but I think it's nice to be able string tennis racket. at that price, maybe the wilson bairbaido is good choice... at least not limited by only badminton racket. Or technifibre, babolat...
E3000 can only trigger the tension head by pressing the button behind the gripper while C-7032N can be triggered by pressing the button and pushing the gripper. I would prefer C-7032N more since I'm more used to the curved track of the clamp base. Clamp bases may bump into each other on straight tracks.
I need to mention the Alpha Ghost 2 which seems to be another clone of the same machine, but for just about 3.000 USD: see http://alphatennis.webstarts.com/machine_ghost.html
