Re: White's M6 Users

Are you researching because you're looking for a machine? I run the M6 and love it! When it comes to coins, it's a VACUUM! I find SO much clad that it's ridiculous, older coins too. Having all those tones is awesome. As far as gold? I am just sick of the pulltab ratio which is with ANY machine, so it's entirely my fault not wanting to dig em'. Don't dig the tabs, you don't find the gold, but again, that is of no fault to the machine. It is great in trashy areas because of the tones as well. All in all, it's in my honest opinion a "pay for itself" machine. Perhaps you should also ask a more seasoned user for I have only had mine just over three months... Paul

Re: White's M6 Users

Bought the machine to trade the coinmaster in which was useless to me in our ground because it went off in all metal mode whenever the coil contacted the ground, so it did in PP too. Was told by the dealer the next upgrade was the M6 because until then they would be the same electronics just with more bells and whistles. The coinmaster was to be a backup machine for my minelab 705. I've been out with the M6 for a few hours and am very impressed with this machine. It's now a tossup as to which machine I take out now as both are very good mid level machines. The 705 has more features but the M6 is a great turn on and go machine that actually air tested deeper than the 705.

Re: White's M6 Users

I was never a big fan of air testing other then to make sure your machine is working, but I'm glad you like it and as I said, it's a coin vacuum! Good Luck! Paul

Re: White's M6 Users

gambler go thru the brands page for whites, and there are a couple good threads on the M6. I borrowed one and put 20+ hours on it. If I had to say anything bad about it, I would say that the toggle switch is easily damaged, its in a spot where it can easily take a knock. Other than that, it's all thumbs up.

Re: White's M6 Users

I got an M6 in Feb. 2009. I've got the 6"x10" DD coil on it and it kicks some serious rear end. Last year was my first year metal detecting. I finished with 11,265 coins, 24 silver rings, and 18 silver coins. The M6 is a coin-killer.

I've used the M6 for the last 3 years. Love the tone ID and the power of this little machine . IMHO this is the best turn on and go machine made today. It will rival most of the big name expensive programable machines.
