Default Kandrian vs. Saba: What temperature do leaves 'burn' from cold?

Has anyone compared Saba and Kandrian for cold-hardiness? It is not so much the hardiness of the pseudostem that I am concerned about (pseudostem will survive winter in my zone 9a region anyway; most winters are 9b here). I wonder which of these two bananas will last the longest in winter without experiencing leaf "burn". Which one will see its leaves turn brown first? I will probably get down to 26-27 degrees fahrenheit one night or two this winter, but with some overhead canopy. That won't happen until at least Christmas or January though. Most winter days here we see the low 70s Fahrenheit/low 20s Celcius.

I look forward to your answers. Thanks.
