just sold the AT GOLD, will be getting the 600 Nox using Veteran discount. Never though that I would ever own a Minelab, too heavy and too expensive but the Nox changed all of that. To me it is just stupid not to get one, especially if you ever plan to water hunt. it has to be hands down better than the AT on depth plus being Bluetooth. I plan to sometime get some Bluetooth earbuds as I don't like the ear phones. I still am not sure if you can actually get the wired headphone jack under water when detecting. Jerry

The headphone jack has gaskets to protect the detector internals regardless of whether a set of headphones is plugged in. BT doesn't work if the control head is submerged in the water so wired headphones are needed if you keep the detector mostly submerged. If the control head stays above water most of the time then waterproof BT earbuds will work just fine.

Congrats on selling your AT Gold. Do you know where you’re ordering your 600 from? I’m still on the wait list for the 800 and I used the discount as well.

You wil not be disappointed. Went on my second hunt today with my 600 and found a ton of clad, a 1942 quarter, and a 1911 barber dime. This thing loves silver and coin good luck and happy hunting when you get your new machine. And by the way. I am lovin park2 give it a run.

Too bad you sold the gold. Its the best in the at line I believe. Super reliable, good depth and better audio that the pro. I think it'll be a desirable detector for a long time to come.

With that said I got my 600 a couple days ago. Have only been airtesting but I'm liking the less intrusive sounding tones compared to the garrett at series.

Looks like Bart will be my provider. We had pretty much quit using the AT, I had found things with the Deus that the AT didn't see. we have an old school yard that we have hit pretty hard in the past and may try it out there.
