I bought mine recently, and the sounds are different. I'm not a fan for using them while land hunting, just because the stock ones sound pretty good. The only reason im keeping them is because I plan on hunting rivers and beach water next summer, so I might as well keep them for that.

Let me know what you think when you get them. Maybe I'm just an odd one out?

Give us a review of them when you get a chance. I was also considering buying them based on the good reviews I had seen online, but as of late they seem to be dropping off in quality????

Like I said, I only used them for a short while, its been too cold to water hunt here. I just didn't like the sound difference. I might throw them back on for my next hunt, just to try again. I will say they had a nice folding design, and were comfortable. I'll post more after my next hunt with them.

Happy Hunting!

That sucks. It sounds like you got someone else's pair that they returned.

The GGA's are a great improvement over the old UWGG, The improved Piezo design was from my guiding them along this past winter to change from the 27mm to the 50mm. And leave out the small flow coil, which they did and what a major jump in the volume. Now I'm installing them on Excaliburs and the CTX's, also testing an adaptor where you can use them on both machines. Each set I do for these machine I go thru and check out any improvements that I can do to increase the Longevity and Performance. This past week I have done 5 Excalibur's with the GGA's, along with other repairs on the machines.

cool thanks for telling detectorpro how to do things ..I keep the volume at 6.. its way to loud on 7 8 9 10.but I here that's a good thing for when its noisy ...I have seen your videos on youtube.. sweet mods !..one thing you should tell detectoepro to do is make the cored longer ..... I have to put my MD very close to me when I put it down to dig ...with the stock headphones I could put my MD down and stand up with my headphones on the cord is so long .. thats my only complaint ...

I just picked up some of these and I agree the sounds are quite different. I have a hard time telling the difference between coins and bottle tops now. I see this post is a few months old, have you had a chance you use them since then and if so did you get used to them?
