Steve Herschbach Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Six Frequency Options (5kHz, 10kHz, 15kHz, 20kHz, 40kHz) plus Multifrequency. Bluetooth headphones and WM 08 Wireless Module supplied. Waterproof. All for suggested retail U.S. $899! And the base model with most of that for $649. I would say Minelab actually did make a lot of detectors obsolete. Maybe not all but a lot of them. And 40 kHz? Yeah, I will be getting one of these! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabin Fever Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Minelab's not messing around! At these price points and features, this is going to sting the competition if these detectors perform. Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 I need to get some detectors up for sale. The bottom is going to fall out of used prices for some models. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Wow! Price points are below what I (we) expected. They are competing with themselves now. Should I order an 800 or a Monster? What do they really mean when they say gold? How small and how good is the id? If they perform like other Minelabs then this one already has me ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Herschbach Posted September 16, 2017 Author Share Posted September 16, 2017 Quite honestly, this is what I have been wanting for some time. The ability to run either in multifrequency or at various single frequencies in a light weight waterproof package and with built in wireless. Thank you Minelab! Now I can go back to bed.... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
