And this is one of the reasons I'm having such a hard time choosing between the 600 and the 800. Is it worth the extra money for the 800 to be able to adjust all the tones? Plus having the additional frequencies? I'm torn.
I'm sure there is a thread already for this question specifically but I haven't found it so if anybody has a link I'd appreciate it.
Well, I don’t have 600 model instead 800 model.
If budget allows I recommend 800 model.
Why
A few reasons.
If you hunt nuggets.
If you would like to run a regular full pair of headphone wireless using single steam module the 800 is the one.
You can set high tone anywhere you desire with 800 model. Like a nickle window.
You could beach hunt with 800 model and turn off high conductive tone region, then dig only mid and lower conductors in search of gold and platinum.
You can do what I call a silent search using 800. Meaning rathe r than use disc, you can set tones to zero, so no tone whatsoever is provided. This can let Nox run smoother reporting on some scenarios.
800 model is better in heavier iron. Speeds of 7 and 8 gives user some added capability not had on 600 unit.
Relic hunters this really can help you believe me. Coins hunters toohunting pounded. sites.
Note hunting, the backlight is better option vs what it on 600 unit.
The 800 unit definitley can be tailored more for the user.
Modern trash hunting using 5 tones, 800 unit better unit vs 600.
For the utmost separation and unmasking the gold modes on the 800 unit are there not so with 600 unit. Again relic hunters this is a weapon to have in the field.
Manual noise cancel ismthere with 800, I haven’t run into a situation where I neededor thogutn I needed it.
It is your decision totally.
All I can do is post my deep down honest thoughts on the 800 unit vs the 600 unit based on my actual use of 800 model.
If you decide to get the small 6”coil, again the bonus features the 800 gives a purchaser are tremendous in my book.
User can set up 800 unit and hunt more by ear as they swing this lightning fast detector through polluted sites.
With a 600 unit you will not be as assured of exactly what’s under your coil. Odds wise.
Good luck.
