Araratgold said:Well guys, I won't be getting a 6000. Just bought Mbasko's 4500 to add to my 4500 / Evo's and ZED / X coils.
The 6000 just doesn't grab me enough to justify the the extra $5K for what is only going to be a spare detector.
If I didn't already have a ZED and X coils, I probably would have bought one.
If I want to do some patch hunting with a lighter machine, the 4500 coupled to my very nice 24x12 Evo will do just nicely ! The 6000 doesn't have a big 24 inch coil, does it ?
This will be the first time in 20 years that I haven't bought the new model !

If only we all lived in WA ..... I wouldn't waste my time on small gold or a 6000 either ..... unfortunately we have to be content with smaller gold, harder detecting areas etc etc so for some in the eastern states the 6000 may be the new go to machine.
