Any reviews out there for UNLIMITED (Double Carbon) Carbon Fiber shafts (from Japan)?

Adding carbon to a maple shaft seems pointless to me. Can anyone explain the advantage of doing this without any unsubstantiated claims?
About the only thing I can think of is that it would make the maple a bit stiffer. Which is the exact reason I dislike most carbon shafts. Way too stiff for my liking.

Carbon tubing is much stiffer and has higher modulus therefore the tubing walls can be thinner while maintaining sitffness and strength. This allows for having lower endmass while maintaining the same stiffness and strength. Lower end mass equals lower squirt/cueball deflection. Having a wood-wood joint and shaft taper gives the feel of a wooden shaft while the cf tubing at the end lowers end mass while maintaining strength and rigidity and having low deflection.

The other benefits are ease and consistency of construction relative to an entire shaft with taper, made of cf.

Wow, you liked that sound? I would stick a sock in each of my GC4 pockets to keep the balls from twirling around for 10 seconds when the pocket was empty. However, I was also trying to quiet the table as much as possible so my neighbors wouldn't complain. It was in an apartment.

I could slam dunk a ball and it won't go in😂

I'll stick up for DCP in this thread.... I think he wants the sound when the ball hits the back of the pocket to be louder. And I think the other members are describing mods to their Dimaond to make the sound quieter? At least that's how I'm interpreting this thread. That's why I believe there is such a disconnect.

Oh, and one more, if memory serves, the ball basket drop pocket in the Professional is much different than whatever is in the Pro-Am ball return. So the members might be comparing apples to oranges.
