Which to choose
The biggest difference is how sure testers are about forgiveness and flight. Testers clearly call the Quantum Triple Diamond the least forgiving Quantum head. Off-centre hits lose noticeable speed and distance, and it launches low on a strong, boring flight. Testers are split on the Elyte Triple Diamond: some find mishits drop off much more than with the standard Elyte, while others say they hold up better than expected. Views on its launch height also differ.
Both are compact 450cc, 10.5° heads at 45.75 inches with low spin. Most testers call the Elyte's sound muted and pleasing, but opinions on the Quantum's sound are split. The Elyte has front and rear sole weights. The Quantum's adjustable back weight offers a neutral or fade setting.
Choose the Elyte Triple Diamond Driver if…
you want a glossy, traditional low-spin head with a muted sound and front and rear weights for a fitter to fine-tune, and you'd like to work the ball both ways.
Choose the Quantum Triple Diamond Driver if…
you're a consistent, fast-swinging ball striker who wants a low, penetrating flight that leans towards a fade, and you accept losing speed on mishits.
