NXT is a multifilament string constructed of Wilson's patented Xycro micro fibers. Made in France. NXT doesn't present any major problems during stringing. No string damage will occur though, as long as clamps aren't adjusted too tightly. During cross string installation, the coating seems slightly sticky but doesn't noticeably slow down weaving.
Knots tie easily and lock nicely into place, likely due to the polyurethane coating.
Sensation NXT 16 provides a cushioned yet responsive feel. Although some fraying occurs after several hours of play, it is less than would be expected from a multifilament string. The polyurethane coating seems to help lock the strings in place, with the overall result being above average durability. It is responsive, yet provides good damping and offers good durability for most players. Scores for playability, control and comfort are among the highest of any test string to date.
