Ok, I'll be the first to tell you to get properly fitted. The fitter will compare your old clubs to those you're interested in. I would expect a better result with newer clubs. Having said that, I constantly return to my Bridgestone Forged J15 cb iron from 2013.

About 4 years ago I took my J15 cb to Club Champion to compare primarily against the PXG but with an open mind. At a local course I had the J15's lofts decreased a degree or 2. Comparing the P790 [2021] to the J15cb forged 6 iron, there was a 5 or 6 mph ball speed difference. That is considerable. I purchased the P790s with Nippon Modus 3 S shafts and tried to get over the sound. Even my playing partners noticed the sound was clanky. I blamed it on myself, but eventually went back to the J15s. I also play Miura TC-201 irons with Oban CT 115 S on occasion. That's a lot of blabbing, but I thought that someone else could chime in on whether an upgrade helped them. Thanks to all who contributed.

Simply put, I have a set of TM P790 irons that I cannot stand the sound of. They play well 2021 version. And they play well, as every review says. Is the 2025 version worth the upgrade? I play the Bridgestone J15 forged CB irons and love the feel, but the distance loss is just too much? Is it worth the upgrade from the 2021 p790s, especially in feel to the 2025 version?
