I have put my Garrett submersible headphones through much wear and tear over the years river detecting and they continue to perform well, maintenance free. They have outlasted all the headphones I've ever owned problem free. That being said, they also rank as the most uncomfortable headphones I've ever put on my head, so I've adapted with tricks on how to wear them though not to ergonomic. Just wondering if anyone knows of other options for water hunting headphones for the AT Gold. I've searched the web and can only assume nothing new has come out for Garrett detectors. Thanks for any input.
