Below, Del asked if you'd do some comparisons between the EQ-800 w/6" and V-540 w/5X8. I was gong to ask you to do that, but first was curious how you might compare their standard 11" Vs 9X12 DD coils. I think a lot of readers would find the comparisons and your comments interesting and educational.

PS: After I bought this first 540 Pro Pack I liked it so well I bought a 2nd. The idea was to keep the 9X12 mounted on the other while I sent this unit in to service to see if they could fix the glitch related to the negative and positive GB effects of the different modes. After it was returned, and having used the other main unit with my original 9X12 coil for an hour, I traded that new 540 Pro Pack to Joel. That's what he used to find 2 Barber Dimes in his old park .... and then he sold it. If I would have known that I would have bought it back. Anyway, this is my 2nd-2nd V-540 and it will keep the 9X12 mounted so I'll have both Vanquish coils at-the-ready. The two sizes complement each other quite well.
