Title: Time for a change. If it were your money... Post by: Dusty on June 08, 2015, 04:09:52 PM What would it be, Xterra 705 or a Whites M6?
Plenty of reviews for the Minelab but not much about for the Whites..? The Americans seems to like them but can't make out if there's a little bias because they are built in the states or that they are just a good machine? Title: Re: Time for a change.

Post by: Chef Geoff on June 08, 2015, 04:35:08 PM Both very nice machines to use but my vote would have to go to the Xterra as I had some great finds with mine, it's lighter and you can alter the frequency if you feel inclined by changing the coil ;)

Should really have bought the 705 when Amazon had them at £393 but missed out while looking at getting the cheaper M6. Personal recommendation is always useful when making a decission so I'll probably stick with the Minelab. Miss my Safari and the wacky sounds. Title: Re: Time for a change. If it were your money...
