Reg Wilson Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Can't wait to try one of these coils on a QED. The Bulgarian carbon fiber CC coil has yet to come up to expectations so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhaseTech Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 The closest existing spiral wound coil for GPX's is the 12x8" Evo, so be good to compare to that one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busho Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 What are the X coils? Are they flat wind like the Nugget Finder Evos and Coilteks Elite? I know nothing about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busho Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Ok, thanks. The Flat/spiral wound Evo's and Coilteks sure sparked some life back into the GPX's that's for sure. Interesting if something new has come into the mix. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent King Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 So what is the difference between these coils and the Evo’s? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is again interesting. I know that even though a coil can have the exact same type of wind, that there are different types of litz wire as per strands used. Some more strands, some less. I have used some proto coils in years gone by. Some used more strands, like I said, some less. One I tried was super flighty, but if you got to know it, it outperformed the quieter one. It didn't make the grade as most didn't like it being flightier. But damn, was it a good coil. That was in the standard winds though and as good as it was the flats were better. But before them, it was a much better coil. Love to see in person an Evo vs an X here in Oz. In real conditions, not a test patch. Out and testing responses on undugs. One day perhaps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She has something in between. It can be called semi spiral" cheers dave Hi mate. Where can these coils be purchased from in Aus for the GPX's and can a person go and see one before hand in the field? Are there any round versions above 12" in the line up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
