I've used trond on early 2018 equinox with no issues. I currently have a jan 2019 nox 600 and same trond headphones wont pair. one time they did pair when i was pairing them to my cell at same time and was crackly audio. tried to repair cleanly again and wont pair. works great otherwise on other devices no issues. I suspect minelab changed their radio/chipset for headphones.

sometimes when I go into and out of pinpoint the audio drops super low volume but comes back full volume in a few seconds. maybe this bug is more prevalent on yours. This was on a 600.

they sound same as wired phones to me. no clue on bass issue. iron tone is fine.

the day before announcement. but i got a 600 so had to wait for second batch. but did find a 600 online from first batch. Now have 2 briefly.

these are great! more rugged than avantree. similar weight and feel as makro/nokta https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B075VLWPXF/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1519433188&sr=8-5&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=aptx+low+latency&dpPl=1&dpID=414mRSlypwL&ref=plSrch

I know some units shipped from Minelab USA to direct dealers and distro's earlier this week. My dealer received his second shipment yesterday direct from Minelab.

If you are ok with discriminating out iron or hearing it as the same tone foil you could adjust the Fe or T1 tone break as just below nickel.

I have $13 atpx ear buds that work great.

Yep, unfortunately, the 600 is in less supply than 800 though. Great value comes with great wait apparently. :(

That's not entirely true. Every dealer will get one if they pre-ordered any at all. Then X more depending on quantity but not necessarily a set percentage. But yes there was a formula to distribute and the simplified statement you were given is an easier way for people to understand just not 100% true.

Minelab has no idea if a customer paid dealer or not. Not their financial relationship. Minelab fills distributor orders. Distributor fills dealer orders(still doesnt know or care who prepaid). Some distributors are great and will drop ship individual orders that were back orders (pre orders) instead of send to dealer because they rock and want happy dealers and ultimately end users. I suspect some of you with UPS tracking is coming from fort worth area. Best distro in the country. Minelab did do extra work with distributors to determine individual dealer quanties to ensure everyone got one first then a percentage of some kind based off total after that. Hense some dealers got 1 and some a few. They dont normally do that and went the extra mile in my opinion. BUT guess what. They still had no idea or care who pre paid or not. They get paid from distro on their own individual terms not end user. Its not rocket science. Pretty straight forward.

customer arrangement with dealer has no bearing on dealer to distro arrangement and/or distro to manufacturer arrangement. If a dealer is putting prepay first in line thats on the dealer. Not dictated by distro or manufacturer. Each relationship has their own agreement. Stating otherwise is false.

That deposit talk and priority things sound like a lot of hogwash. No offense. I don't sell Minelab but zero other manufacturers/distributors work that way. Now I will say some distributors and manufacturers are better at logistics than others so I can see why some dealers have one message and others have a different message.

MX Sport has a proper angle. This one looks like it has the treasure pro/mx 5 grip angle that is too forward or obtuse of an angle.

has the horrible treasure pro grip angle. smh

The F44 has a special too. Free 4" coil, hat, pouch. Being an original omega 8000 user I've never been too pleased with the 8500 and newer F series on the same platform. They lost that mojo that the f5/o8/g2/f19 had. I would love an Omega 8000 and G2+ combined in one machine WITHOUT changing their performance/response. Heck make it waterproof and sell it $699 MAP. Seems to be the market trend now.

I dont prospect but the ID is so good for single frequency I think I'm gonna snag a G2+ to pair with my omega for those spots emi shuts it down or rare relic hunt. I think this is only a sales move. Nothing new but a pin pointer coming out this year that I know of.

Speaking of blowing out. G2+ and F19 are $449 MAP until 11/30/17!

http://www.xpmetaldetectors.com/DEUS/Update/DEUS_UPDATE_English_Setup.exe Steve I forgot to mention I only test the centered 14.4khz frequency. The new coil lets you shift quite significantly as you show in your image. I believe it's about 13.3 to 15.6kHz for the 14k range. Perhaps 13.3 would do better on coins. Again, not horrible, just not as good as the trusty 11.6kHz.

It's not bad. It just still has an affinity to call modern aluminum trash coins like 18khz does. I do like the fast response and crisp audio. One could certainly do well with it. Just avoid modern trashy parks unless you like frustration. Or a "challenge" as you call it. :)

XP had a last call for beta feedback on friday. Steve, I've done two short hunts 9" hf on 14khz and to me it feels a lot more like 18khz than it does 12khz. As a coin guy that pretty much voids any desire for the hf coils. Not that I expected differently. Not seeing a lot of depth increase in new deep program. It certainly amps up the gain but actual depth gain isnt much. Absolutely love Garys hot program with v4 and negative disc. I wasnt a fan of full tones before but targets really pop in that program now. Pitch program is pretty much 2 tone vco all metal now. At times when using all the new items like smart phone blutooth connection, ws4's, coil, remote, pointer I've seen some odd switch back and forth delay with the headphones and pinpoint mode on and off. Hopefully if was just me or in my situations. Re-pairing items clears it up but shouldnt be necessary.

This is very true. Just had a minor update this week. Addressed one labeling issue I reported to them. Anyway, here is more in depth look at the pointer deus integration and depths.

Sorry I havent gotten more updates up. I accidently bricked my coil downgrading to v3.2 with 3.2 update softwar and v4 coil paired. The v4 update software recognizes v4 coils and doesnt try to push down grade to it like 3.2 installer did. Oops...now i wait and see if it can be recovered. Had i realizes 3.2 (and 2.0 for that matter) were options in the new installer it could have been avoided. So there is some tester advice. Only use the new installer to be safe. Hope I'm not stuck with a $425 paper weight.

These videos arent anything to write home about but its a start. Coil Pointer Quicky hunt
