I have a GP 1500 that I switched to parallel linkage units like a 1510.  I set it up on 15" centers.  It really improved the depth control.  Part of the problem with a drill is too many down pressure springs.  When it gets low on seed it had a tendency to lift the drill.  The parallel linkage also really helps too.  The reason that I did the conversion was cost. I couldn't justify a 15" planter.
