Mark is pretty much right. To get optimal performance, the detector often needs to be tuned to the detector. However, I've switched a lot of coils on other preset models and have had good results so I'd recommend trying it before sending off. Also, not sure what Tesoro's reaction, warranty wise, would be to this change. Often, the preset ground balance would be the major mismatch and that's an easy tweak of a pot on the board, but I can't tell you which one. One other thought - the Compadre is so reasonably priced, why not buy one with either the 5.75 or the 8" coil to compliment what you already have or add a Silver to the arsenal which is already wired to change coils? Just a thought.
