Hi all, my partner and I have been prospecting for a couple of years now, my partner has a nox 800 and me a monster. Have only found a lot of lead shot, nails and the usual rubbish. So now we are looking at upgrading to a GPX 5000 and an SDC 2300. I see a number of 5000s for sale on Facebook...
There is so much more to learn about the 5k, eg..
From memory on a test I did, (in particular settings) a 0.3 gram bit at 10 inches I can make it sound like a 1 grammer at 3 inches just by switching from fine gold to sensitive extra with the 17x13, if I drew a responce/depth curve the responce...
Has anyone replaced the muffs on a GPX 6000 or Equinox 800 set of headphones? Mine are losing their black coating but the headphones still work fine. Are the headphones made by Minelab or are they a re-brand?
Thanks Andrew
Hello all. Looking to get into some gold prospecting.
I'm pretty green but I've been researching metal detectors.
Have been leaning towards the GPX5000.
Any thoughts on whether this would be a good choice for me?
Also, some coils that have been mentioned to me are:
12" Evo Coil
19" Evo Coil...
