Is This The New Faceplate Of The Vanquish?

Going by what i see on the video it doesn't have hard wired phones. 

Your right about Minelab and Nokta going after Garrett , I think Garrett might be on a sticky wicket and in the crossfire .

I didn't buy a Terra , I bought a second E.Trac . The best coin hunting beach machine in the World . Easy to set up , perfect or close to target info , and with the RNB battery as long lasting as a Nimitz class Carrier's reactor LOL.

I had £22.88p last night on the beach but no gems . Tides are a bit short and the sand doesn't show till long tides. Didn't I see just how bad its getting though , the amount of people on the beach it should have been a bonanza . Instead it was very nearly quiet everywhere . Like money hadn't even been invented. Baaaad. 

I don't think the Vanquish is going to be waterproof , I don't think Minelab saw the Simplex coming or maybe was to far down the road to change much . Too fixed on Garrett . I think also only the 540 Pro will get the headphones but hopefully with a standard sized control box it will have a quarter inch socket . Then the Gray Ghosts are good to play on.

 

You're right, Xterra on the brain I guess, sorry about that.  Hoping ML comes out down the road with a Multi IQ based detector with the Target ID resolution and sophisticated Disc patterning of the Etrac and CTX FBS 2 detectors.  Now that would be something I could get behind feature wise.  Otherwise, I am really wanting for nothing as far as detectors are concerned, which is probably a relief to my better half.

Fortunately, I can likely skip contemplating anything new detector wise in 2019 and 2020 (with the possible exception of the FT AQ PI if it ever shows up and unless Nokta/Makro or XP decide to release simultabeous multifrequency based detectors) as I have no interest in detectors that have less capability than what I have now and that appears to be Simplex and Vanquish.

Can't imagine anyone releasing a detector without a hard wired headphone port at this point especially for water hunting and considering the price point that ML has been charging for their wireless accessories, it seems it would push their detector price target too high.  But anything is on the table until proven otherwise. A Standard 1/4" phone jack would be good.

Let's get it right this time - Enjoy that eTrac Nuke!

Happy Hunting.

Whatever this ultimately turns out to be, if it uses Multi-IQ and cost $500 or less, it should annihilate the AT line, and the Simplex the ACE and AT line.
