fabio Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I took the 9 because I use it almost exclusively at sea so the 9 glides better and has less friction if you use it on the beach and also in the water, take the 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandheron Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I have the 9 for a heavily iron infested beach, I may get the 13 if it is ever a thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relicmeister Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 If anyone gets the 13” probably should get a coil centering mount to save your wrist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brys Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 if u get an 11 u need a meatier stem like the golden mask stem 9 is favorite for most guy s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogliuga Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I have the 11” because open fields are my favourite areas. But the 9” is lighter, it’s very accurate. I’d say surgical and the best option on iron infested sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially if not produced yet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabio Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 if a 7 plate came out I would buy it for research in the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suncoast Kid Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Yeah, you think that the engineers would have figured that out and implemented it by now. Take for instance the N/M 7" concentric coil, mount in the middle, perfect. Then you have the N/M 6" coil for the Legend, and it's all the way over to the side. The same for XP's 11x13" coil, not mounted in the center, nose heavy. You see people making gadgets so that the shaft mounts in the middle. I've dealt with engineers my whole life. That's why I kept a bottle of Advil in my top drawer. 🤣 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelDan Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Since 99% of my hunting is on saltwater beaches and fresh water lakes, I have the 11" coil on both my D2s. If I have a need to detect in a heavily vegetated area for relics, I'll use my Equinox 800 with a 6" coil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
