LOL pls don't take this the wrong way I hate chatting via msn ym I don't even have account set up x-p. Feel free to direct only questions to me via PM, give me some time to reply, at least I don't give you a chaperang sp? answer, I will try my best to answer your question with my limited info.
Regarding most of the strings except for Pro Supex can be bought from tennis-warehouse( you must be sick of hearing that lol) I recall fellow lowyat member zdepth may be holding a small/big tennis bulk,next month after most forummer got their pay, so look for him 1st July,2009 tumpang him for some tennis strings lah, should have zero tax, as I ordered my Gamma Zo Twist via his previous bulk, didn't kena tax for the strings but kena tax 30% on clothing and frigging RF tennis cap.
For Topspin strings, give bro Battousai a PM, I think he has local lobang for this string, if I recall correctly, please forgive me if I am mistaken, but can't hurt to ask lah, he is a very friendly guy.
I read you are now using a APDC is that correct, I would try something along the range of 54-57lbs max!
BUT let me ask you, you have used luxilon before, how was your balls like, too short inside service box, too deep going past baseline, too flat, not enough spin, too spinny , go high over the net, but no penetration/power?
Pls give comments for both backhand/forehand/serve/volley. If you are shy, PM me, lah, will be discreet.If you are willing to share your experience on forum , more power to you, also please note, I am just a fellow tennis kaki lah, I am not guaranteeing you will be the next Federer/Nadal , but hopefully you will be a tennis player, even I learn new stuff everyday. :-D

well for pro supex (found the seller in singapore already). as for topspin blue found it in uptown selling for rm60 (will PM battousai see if he got any cheaper lubang).
ok for luxilon strings, i'v used luxilon rough, alu power and ace 113 (18gauge). So far my comments on them is that when new they produce pretty good bite but after some prolonged playing, they tend to lose the "bite". and my normal stringing tension is around 55lbs. As for the balls, is has quite descent spin but not too much. penetration is no problem coz i do whack it hard. but i just feel probably the spin potential is not strong eventhough i'm using semi-western grip. though myself i don't think i know how to hit "flat" balls (mostly ppl associate with the eastern grip) but i think most my balls are a semi ( in between flat n spin ) coz it definitely has deep penetration and mostly hitting baseline area. I nver had a chance to view myself playing so not sure how spinny the ball is from the opponent side.
forehand, having semi-western grip but sometimes do experiment with the western. long swing.
backhand, 1handed bheastern grip also with a bit of spin i think.
btw .. i'm not shy 1 lah .. coz really i'm still a beginner and learning via youtube and playing with frens. And of coz i don't aspire to be next champion, but i do really luv tennis and the fun of having to whack the ball at full speed. the only fun for me in tennis is driving the ball hard .. thus even though i don't play much game, but i just luv going down n stroking
