Was considering purchasing the CoilTek 5 x 10 coil for my CTX and wanted to ask people that have one to provide a brief review of what they like or didn’t like. I know it’s pricy but I’m more interested in worth as in worth it or not. I live with the 6” on my detector most of the time and love it and maybe that’s all I need.

I've formally tested and reported on both for a major retailer and found them to be extremely close in terms of performance in a variety of environments and situations using a wide array of targets. I ultimately gave a very slight edge to the Coiltek 5x10 regarding sensitivity but not really enough of one to justify the additional investment. I did like the solid face of the Coiltek which didn't get hung up on underbrush as the Minelab could but again, they are so similar in bottom line performance that were I in your position, I'd just stay with the Minelab...it will do you well.

Just the view from my foxhole...

Thank you very much for your response ColonelDan! I love the 6” coil and get great depth so I guess I’m sticking with what I know!
