[QUOTE="argyle, post: 21567, member: 1008"] A 16" round mono, provided a mono coil can be used on that ground, has a very slight depth advantage over a 14" round mono. Anything over the size of a 16" round has no depth advantage above it at all. They are an ideal coil size the 16" round, and that's the cut off point for raw depth. Some can prefer, say, an 18"x12" or 17"x11" elliptical coil over the 14" round (both are equal in depth to the 14" round, but the round still seems to hold a fuller signal edge) due to ellipticals ability to seem to 'slide' around, for want of a better word, but rounds remain truer to signals at depth. None of the coils you've mentioned will gain any depth advantage over a 16" round. Not even an 18" round will. [/QUOTE]
