So all the buzz about this detector I just had to put my 2 cents in. This is a very polarizing topic as it seems the majority already either love it or hate it. I remember all the same kind of love/hate for the Etrac. Well the Etrac and Excal were my first Minelab machines and I bought them both the same day and have had some amazing results with them and I have owned other brand detectors. So the 2 facts I know about this new machine?
1. Minelab has been an inovator in the industry and introduced things like BBS and FBS, Smartfind, Iron Mask and Quick Mask. Basically made the 1st detector that you could dig good targets out of the same hole with iron nails and trash in it.
2. What is the last junk metal detector that they put out and more specifically what junk HIGH END detector have they ever put out?
So the most important fact I know about this machine is it is a Minelab. Will I go out and drop over 2 grand on it? Probably not, I think that I am just now really learning my Etrac and getting the results that it is capable of and I would be starting all over with this. But who knows if the results across the boards with everyone using them are just unfreakin' believable then I may consider it. All we can do is wait and see.
