For me the choice comes down to one key feature

The iron volume adjustment. Hunting colonial sites loaded with iron you can go mad without this feature. Did not like the way K dropped a bomb on D but it saved me from making two purchases.Regards

That is true....I liked that ability.....because after just one hour of listening to the iron grunts going off non stop it gets irritating if they are the same volume. I don't want to shut the iron out just lower it.

I agree, Iron Audio is a key feature. That alone, and coupled with a lower price point (the actual sale price, not the MSRP), could sway some to the Nokta Detector.

I personally would prefer to purchase a Detector from someone other than KCo, but the data to date may leave me little choice (based on features and price).

Probably best to wait to see if someone will be able to test the iron audio feature to see exactly how and how well it works. Will Keith, Monte and others be able to get access to the Impact for testing like they did with the Racer? If not, it may be best to wait a while until there's enough user feedback on it to make an informed buy decision.

Hello berryman,

I agree with you 100%. The feature is only good if it works well in the field.

I will not believe the price that was quoted on their ad at this time as I have seen this happen before as it was a mistake and the actual price is a lot higher when it comes available. Lets just see when and if this detector comes out.

Wise words. But since I rarely test for an OEM, and after using the ForsCore I feel comfortable with future purchases. I usually buy right away and if it does not meet my requirements in the colonial fields of Virginia off she goes. Maybe a little reckless but ...........

I wonder, will "Iron Audio" be a iron volume adjustment or merely a reference to ferrous tones?

We shall see .
