WHITES MX SPORTS TESTS

 

Comments

I tried a MX Sports on my old test bed about a year ago, alarm bells sounded in my head, there was something special about it, i sold it before i could test it properly.
Then my test bed went belly up and i never did get a chance.
Anyway, new test bed, just had another MX Sports in, so time to try it again.
What a awesome detector, totally blew me away, effortlessly picked up most of the targets on the test bed.
Then i remembered i had a 13'' Detech Ultimate coil in stock, i put it on and it just got better, it is now is the best detector i have tested
I have only spent 20 mins on it so it could be even better once i have gone though the settings, all i have done so far is to pt it into the coin and Jewellery program and wack the sensitivity up
This one will be joining me one my next outing!

Pros

Clear signals
Awesome among iron
Very deep
Awesome on low conductive targets
Easy to use
Fast responding
Waterproof

Cons

Bit unbalanced/Heavy

DEPTH TESTS

The depth tests are set up to gauge the power of the detector, all iron is removed from the hole.

Various size items are buried at good depths

YES

YES

CAN IT FIND A GOLD CHAIN WHEN COKE IS REJECTED

YES

YES

CAN IT FIND A LOW CONDUCTIVE CUT ¼ WHEN COKE IS REJECTED

NO

YES

CAN A GOLD CHAIN BE FOUND WHEN COKE IS NOT REJECTED

YES

YES

CAN A LOW COND CUT ¼ BE FOUND WHEN COKE IS

NOT REJECTED

NO

YES

CAN IT FIND A LOW CONDUCTIVE VERY THIN SILVER EARRING BURIED AT 2’’

NO

YES
