Coil question for the MXT experts ??

Imo the 6x8 sef is way better than both of those . IT separates better than the 6x10 and gets the same depth of the D2 10 inch coil..just my opinion but in my Pennsylvania soil that's my 2 cents. . I think k the D2 coil is way too heavy for all it offers, I do like the 6x10 but it's depth capabilities are very limited.. Not so with the 6x8.. That suckered is deep on any whites.

I'm no expert but I agree with woodbutcher 100%. I used two coils the last several years of Whites detectors hunting, the 10X12 for general coverage sampling and cladding and the 6X8 for serious hunting.

I was looking on their website that they also have a 5x10”DD along with the 6x8”. It must be really new , I don’t see anyone talking about that coil . I try to do thorough research before i spend that kind of money. Thanks for your input.

I am not familiar with anything White's for the last 10 years since I moved to the Minelab line but with coils, it is a constant trade-off when changing size. A 10 inch coil gives you two more inches in your search pattern vs. 8 inches but your search width goes from 6 inches to 5 which will probably affect your depth.
That was my thoughts, I emailed the company to see what information i could get from them about that very topic.

I am sold on the 6x8SEF, smooth and deep. Had it on my MXT for years

I still use the old MXT now and then.
Is this the coil y'all's talking about.

That's the little sweetheart I used it a lot in "worked out" sites. The 10x12 was my go-to coil for everything else.

Welp. Looking like I absolutely need one.
My MXT is still my go to when my new fangled machines can't take the EMI noise.
