I liked how the 2 tone coin mode worked in the vid. I'm super interested in how the relic mode sounds in the 2 tone mixed audio mode? All questions should be answered pretty soon. It should be an exciting year..

I see the MXTpro sticking around for some time. I would think the M6 would be on the chopping block now with the release of the MXS. Actually the M6 is my favorite coin shooter from Whites.

I guess it's possible the new guy really didn't know the MXT as well as the MXS? What I learned is your not going to duplicate a mostly analog response when your running a digital version. It's the future though. Our soft sweet target responses are being replaced by a harsher digital response. But by going full digital more features can be packed into a smaller package at a lessor cost. Will the MXS dethrone the Atpro? From what I've seen already I'm sure it will.

For me the MXS is a machine that gives me choices. Unlike the MXT it has notch disc which I have grown to like. I also like the fact that it's waterproof for the obvious reason but for other reasons such as rain and dust proofing. Compared to the ATpro it has a ton more features. I always wished the Garrett had a larger screen, tone options and backlight. The MXS has all that and more. All the MXS has to do is do everything well. That's it. Some people don't want to carry a Swiss Army knife. They may just carry a big single blade knife. But what if they need some tweezers or a Phillips screwdriver? They will be the first to ask to use your multi tool in your pocket! No detector can do it all. But if your going to pick just one then pick one that can do most everything well. That has been the job of the ATpro. But that looks like it's going to change now to the MXS. Some of us will still have our deep silver machines. Our Gold nugget machines. Our relic machines. But wouldn't it be nice to also have the Swiss Army detector too?

It's up now on Youtube.

Can you tell us how well the mixed mode audio worked in relic mode? Also when in prospecting mode does the display show the probability of iron and ground phase?

I wonder how many caches we've left in the ground thinking it was a large trash target? Must be thousands just in the US? Lot's of scenarios after you cover it up. Heart attacks, car wrecks, amnesia, murder, development, Alzheimers or just plain forgot.............

The super fast 2 tone mixed audio relic mode should be the killer for just about all types of searches.

The M6 is the MXT's little brother that has a 1 and 7 tone mode with track lock and salt mode. The SST is a M6 locked in the 7 tone mode with an Eclipse coil on it. It's a M6 without the single tone feature and huge SST letters stuck to the side. The rest is smoke and mirrors. However the M6 is probably Whites best kept coin and jewelry secret. The MXS should out pace the M6.

You would be better off just buying a M6 over the SST. Should be exactly the same speed as the MXT.

In all the years I've used and sold Whites - They have never been so aggressive with a detector launch. They are doing it in a fun way without bashing to boot. In the past they would have never put a competitors photo up against theirs. Whites must be super confident in the MXS like no other machine. This is a good sign of the performance they must know it has over the competition!

Exactly! If the $749 MXS works well then it will be a huge hit. No different than a 22cal over a 20 ga gun. It will cover most all kinds of hunting and do very well. But if your wanting to take down an Elk or high flying Goose then it's probably not the right choice.

It's possible they may need the added horsepower for future platforms in this shell.

You are correct there. LOL

Not too far from there. I'm in Johnson County Missouri. Home of some of the largest Meth Crystals.

Thanks for all the replies! You all convinced me to simply use the lead I already have.

When I jewelry hunt I find plenty of small foil. I know lead is close to gold. But I'm going to be filming and posting these tests along with coins, nails and such. There will be a lot of people calling me out for not using small gold nuggets not knowing lead and foil are basically the same as gold. So this is the reason for my questions.

Hello! I'm new to this forum and want to "pick" your brains.... First off I've never done any nugget hunting. I'm hoping to get my Whites MXSports in soon. I'm going to test the prospecting mode the best I can with some pickers. The problem is that I don't have any nuggets! So you experts tell me what type and size of nuggets would be a reasonable test for the MXS? I know it won't hit tiny ones and will easily hit large ones. I just want to purchase maybe 3 nuggets for testing. I will be using the stock 10 inch coil right now. Maybe a smaller one when available? Can you help? Or maybe even sell me what I need? Thanks, Kenny
