Question On Minelab Gold Monster 1000 Accessories


Recommended Posts

Hi all, im alex from patagonia argentine, i have a gold monster inbox , i cant use because we have like a 60 cm of snow now, i must wait few days or weeks! I have a few questions about accesories for this detector, i read all the post, excelents alls!!! Im very happy to belong at this forum! Thanks, what do you think about headphones? 

It possible to use a betters headphones like ur-30 1/4 with adapter off course? Change something? 

The pro-sonic works in this model? And the lastone , coils.

its possible to put anothers coils?? Like a coiltek or anothers minelab coils, for more deep for example.

One thing i do was change The  tweezers for a 12v car charger, works perfect.

Hi Alex,

Welcome to the forum!

I have to admit I have been using the Gold Monster 1000 mostly without headphones. The places I hunt are normally quiet and the GM1000 speaker has plenty of volume.

The headphones that come with the unit are not bad but I prefer models that fit completely over my ear, instead of resting on my ears like the ones included with the Monster. Almost any headphones will work if you use the proper adapter - the GM1000 sports a 1/8" headphone socket instead of the industry standard 1/4". The Pro-Sonic and other wireless systems will also work fine with the proper adapters.

Currently, the ONLY coils that will work on the GM1000 are the two sizes that come with it. I hope we see more in the future, especially a 14" elliptical.

Good job on the 12V cable - if I did not already have cigarette style cables I might do that myself.

Look forward to your results Alex. Love seeing gold from different areas.

Re headphones, the Deteknix wireless with 3.5mm plug on the transmitter are a perfect fit for the GM1000.

You can also get the 3.5mm transmitter with the full size Pro headphones.

I have read a bit about that area it's really interesting! Here are a couple of cool links about the TDF gold rush and Julius Popper. I think the beach Popper and his men found enough gold to mint his own coins was called El Paramo:)
