Even though I don't swing a Minelab your demonstration videos are really interesting to watch! You also bring up good points for all detectorists (like threshold, which I never pay attention to!) that are super helpful. Very informative and I loved the intro - great job!! ❤
I enjoy your video and explanation of the settings. I have a better understanding on how they work. Where in New England do you hunt. I'm from RI in the tri-state cirner.
You could make songs from all the metal detecting tones (Techno, Trance?). Maybe call it "Treasure Tunes" since you'd have to lay out all your treasures to generate a wide range of tones/pitches. 36:21 X-Terra Elite even makes some Bass sounding tones.
I know the weather has been brutally hot and then the intermediate ranin and thunder storms attched to this heat wave has kept many of us from getting outside to detect all week and weekend, but I am looking forward to more of your Xterra Elite videos !!
Hoping to have more soon! My mom passed away on the 15th and I’ve been down South since then. Won’t be home until the first week of July, and I’ll resume videos shortly after.
@@StefDigs Stef, I am so very sorry on your Mom’s passing. My prayers and condolences and I am sure everyone will join me in sayiing we are thinking of you and your family at this time. Detecting will be here for you wen you’re ready. All the best to you. -Dennis (Stack Silver).
Thanks for take us through the new machine. Good, precise and just facts. Good demo with the coin/nail separation. Really happy it was you teaching me. Take care mate and good luck 🦘🦘😁👍
It really falls between the Vanquish 540 and the Equinox 700, but I’d say it’s closer to the 700 given the expanded TID scale, faster processor, and the fact that it’s waterproof.
@@StefDigs thanks. I was hoping you’d let me know where to place it in the big scheme of things. So it’d still be awesome for a person starting out or as a spare for the beach etc. I’m looking for my granddaughter and something I can play with too.
@@brunfree that’s exactly what I think it would be perfect for - a backup for experienced users and an excellent first detector, or a step into the intermediate realm!
It’s really good! I was on vacation at the beach when the global launch took place, so that’s the only place I’ve had a chance to really use it for an extended period of time (and it is NOT a productive beach this time of year! 😂). The depth was impressive and it is VERY stable with TIDs. Can’t wait to swing it at my usual sites! 😁
@@gr8finds196 very impressed! I was mostly right near the surf on wet sand when I was out - very clear indication of depth and size with the audio. One thing I wish I’d tried at the beach (although I don’t know how effective it would’ve been because there was a distinct lack of iron), is the new negative iron bias feature. That’ll be something exciting for me to try at cellars, though!
I have two coils for my Vanquish 540 Pro pack and my Equinox 700 and I bought spare lower shafts, so I do not have to play with mounting coils I just switch coils and shafts.
Select the search mode Field 1 or Field 2 (experiment with both to see which you prefer). I’d use the presets in either of those modes, with one change: lower the volume of the iron. You can do this by long-pressing the menu button when you’re in the Volume setting. “T1” will appear on the screen when you do this. Reduce the volume to 1 or 2. This way, your iron signals won’t be as loud and it will allow you to hear nonferrous targets more effectively in iron-infested and heavily mineralized ground. I hope the translation works! 🤞🏻
The Equinox series is more versatile than the X-Terra Elite, so I’d stick with the 800 if you’re happy with it. If it’s time for a new machine/upgrade, I’d look at an Equinox 900 or a Manticore!
I'd go with the X-Terra Elite - wider TID scale, and it's got a faster processor as it's a newer detector. If I were in the market for a 600 or X-Terra Elite, I'd go with the Elite Expedition Pack. The Expedition Pack falls between the Vanquish 540 Pro Pack and the Equinox 700 in the line-up, as the stock of 600s will not be replenished once they're sold out.
@@StefDigs Agreed ge the X-Elite! I'm seeing ALOT of Nox 600’s and 800’s being put up for sale on various sites… I can only presume those sellers are going for one of these newer detectors X-Elite, Nox700/900...
@@shaunwizard I haven’t had it out for a long day yet, but it seems to last a while! Manual says 14 hours is the typical runtime. If it’s got the same battery as the Equinox, then I can say from experience with my 900 that 14 hours sounds right.
I’d be searching for private permissions as close to the water as you can get. Always old stuff hiding near large bodies of water, especially ones that were used for transportation!
It is a new feature, yes! Really excited to try that - bummed that I forgot to mention it in the video, of course! 😆 Was already deep in the editing process when I realized it, whoops!
I know it’s for use in heavy iron, but it looked like it was doing great without using it. I would like to know your opinion on a comparison on depth between the xterra and 700/900. I ask this because after using several detectors over the last few years on the beach, the equinox was my favorite. Unfortunately, I had to sell to buy others to try. Anyway, I’m in the market again for and equinox 900, but if depth is the same between the two, and it would save me several 100’s of dollars, then I might opt for the xterra elite. Thoughts?
@@mdsouthcarolina6143 I’d have to imagine the Equinox is deeper. I haven’t performed a depth test at home to compare, however if you think about the size of the stock coil on the X-Terra Elite (12x9) versus the Equinox (11), the added width of the Equinox coil would likely allow for increased depth. The biggest differences between the two machines, however, would be the recovery speed (1, 2, and 3 on the X-Terra versus 1-8 on the 900. 1, 2, and 3 on the X-Terra equate to recovery speeds of 2, 4, and 6 on an Equinox), and some further customization features are available on the Equinox. All things considered, I ran a 600 for 5 years and I didn’t feel limited. I’d say the best value if you need wireless headphones and want an additional coil would be the X-Terra Elite Expedition pack, especially if you don’t want to break the bank! For now though, I would keep your eyes peeled on other channels who might already be putting out depth comparisons between the two. I don’t think you could go wrong with an X-Terra or an Equinox!
@@StefDigs great to hear! I'm currently a Nokta user and love their small coil set up as well, so I get that! Target separation is incredible, and your video shows that pretty well!
No, in Multi, 40 kHz is the highest. You are running 5 frequencies simultaneously: 5, 10, 15, 20, and 40 kHz. The only single frequency option is 15 kHz which is available in Park and Field modes (as well as Multi). In Beach mode, it only employs Multi. In my opinion, the Minelab machines are a cut above the rest of what is available on the market. Hope this helps! 😊
@@StefDigs The Xterra Pro is my buddy’s primary detector and he sold his Nox 600 to buy the X-Pro becuase of leaking issues. His X-Pro and has found gold and silver on new digs on previous grounds he was over with the Nox 600. His results were suprisng to me. The X-terra Elite is on my radar.
@@IffySignals OH! I stand corrected - THANK YOU for chiming in. I don’t have a Vanquish and I thought they were the same - @tommywinthrop3429, it needs to be either Equinox coils or VX coils (ex, V12X). The VX coils are what you see on the X-Terra Pro which is waterproof. Thanks for chiming in, Iffy! How are you liking the machine? I’ll have to run over to your channel when I have a minute, you’re always right on top of releases! 😊 Again, THANK YOU! I will update the video description.
@@StefDigs LOL so do I but nothing like you have I have a Franklin a Merc and a Roosevelt in my collection along with Silver rings that Cathy takes as soon as I find them.
@@davidlewis9068 Haha, I'll bet she does! I don't find a lot of silver, but the quality has always been great due to where I hunt. I'll take quality over quantity any day!
It depends on your level of experience, but the 700 has more features and further customization than what is available on the X-Terra Elite. The Elite falls between the Vanquish 540 and Equinox series in the lineup. Hope that helps!
I currently own the 540 pro pack, I’ve had awesome success with it and I love the turn on and go. I don’t want something to complicated and I want something that would get me dept Thank you for you quick response
@@Chuck-js8dy I would say the Elite and Equinox are similarly easy to use - whatever features you don’t want to dive into on the Equinox, you simply leave alone. That said, the Elite Expedition pack including both the V12X and V8X is a big plus! The 700 only comes with 1 coil. Both machines are stellar options to upgrade your Vanquish!
Sad, the NOX 600 for the same price, why would I buy the Elite and not the 600, what are the advantages of the elite over the 600? (except that even though it was supposed to be waterproof the 600/800 both leaked)
The stock of 600s will not be replenished once the current stock is exhausted. The Elite has a wider TID scale like the X-Terra Pro, Equinox 700/900, and Manticore, and what I would imagine is a faster processor given it’s a newer detector than the 600. I see this as a great backup detector for experienced users, and a really strong start for beginners or intermediate detectorists.
@@StefDigs Exactly. The 600 “was” a good detector (albeit it couldn’t stand up to water), but time and progress has now made the newer offerings better - even at some lower prices than the 600. If you have a 600 continue to use it if it meets your detecting needs, but if you’re buying now, there are much better choices in both performance & price. The new X-Terra Elite and the new Notka Triple Score to name two...
@@Stack_Silver the X-Terra Elite will definitely be a go-to option for those who were once considering a 600, at least that’s my prediction. Can’t speak to the Triple Score, haven’t swung a Nokta machine in years, but there certainly are no shortage of options for those who want a simultaneous multi-frequency machine in this price range. Exciting to see the options roll out!
I wonder which is better Betweem EQX600 or Xterra PRo. I can see Xterra is lighter and more compact ? If perchance is similar or better I dont mind buying new one.
The X-Terra Elite is more versatile than the X-Terra Pro as it offers Multi-IQ technology, as well as negative iron bias (which is new!). The 600 stock will not be replenished after the current stock is exhausted, so I’d be looking at the Elite or the 700 if you want a waterproof detector with Multi-IQ in a modest price range.
@@StefDigs Good to know about the ML 105 working with the Xterra Elite. I wish the included Headset with the Expedition Pack was the ML 105 to use with Manticore if I ever upgraded, or that M would just make one headset to work with All of their current Bluetooth-capable detectors.
@@StefDigs Great info!! Glad you clarified that, sometimes reading message boards yields misinformation and why I ended up asking you here instead. Many thanks and looking forward to your future videos!
Hmm, I didn’t think so, although the size is close. I swung an AT Max when they first came out. Still have it, but it’s been retired to the basement with the acquisition of new detectors!
Thanks for watching! 😊 It seems quite stable, of course I haven’t had the opportunity to take it to a cellar hole yet and really put it through the wringer. Looking forward to doing so!

Will the M85 headphones work with this?
Yes they will! ML 85s and ML 105s will pair to this machine.
@@StefDigs Good to know about the ML 105 working with the Xterra Elite. I wish the included Headset with the Expedition Pack was the ML 105 to use with Manticore if I ever upgraded, or that M would just make one headset to work with All of their current Bluetooth-capable detectors.
@@Stack_Silver you can actually use the ML 85s from the Elite with a Manticore - same connection!
@@StefDigs Great info!! Glad you clarified that, sometimes reading message boards yields misinformation and why I ended up asking you here instead. Many thanks and looking forward to your future videos!
Awesome detector Stef but I bet you miss your Manticore lol
@@RickyD1968 pfffft, I’m still swinging the Manticore as my everyday! This is a GREAT backup machine, though! 😊
Hey I hope you are ok sorry about your loss
@@billdelaney4222 thank you ❤️ Doing my best - so much involved with end affairs, been tough to take much time for myself to dig and make videos.
Great tutorial
@@andruw-tz6ez thank you! 😊
The coil resembles a Garret AT-Max coil.
Hmm, I didn’t think so, although the size is close. I swung an AT Max when they first came out. Still have it, but it’s been retired to the basement with the acquisition of new detectors!
Very nice 👍🤓
Thank you!
Great intro.
Thank you! Happy with how it turned out. 😊
Cool video, r the VDIs more stable? Enjoy ur videos
Thanks for watching! 😊 It seems quite stable, of course I haven’t had the opportunity to take it to a cellar hole yet and really put it through the wringer. Looking forward to doing so!
Ottimo lo ho anch’io 👍
There really is no down-side to running the GB Tracking on all the time.
Whatever works in your conditions, go for it! I haven’t found a big need for it at most of my sites, really depends where I am though.
parabéns pelo video
Thank you! 😊
Great show just sub keep it going😊
Thank you so much! 😊
How Much????????
It’s in the video, lol. $479 USD for the Elite alone, $599 USD for the Elite Expedition pack.
@@StefDigs Comparatively, that is ALOT of value built-in with the Expedition Pack!
@@Stack_Silver it really is! Can’t go wrong!
Hope you are doing well Steff 😢
@@earlmenefee3421 thank you ❤️ Hanging in there - just dealing with a bunch of frustration that goes along with end-affair paperwork. Really haven’t had a minute to get out yet because of all this.
Cool 👌
Thank you!
‘sup?!yeah- this is good ~ peace out- 📢
Thank you! 😊
👍👍
Thanks for watching!
top! show!!!!!!
Thank you! 😊
Does Minelab collects data from every ping emitted from your metal detector specially if is gold?🤔
With so many foreign countries buying so much land in our country you wonder what are they buying.
Absolutely not - I can say that with 100% confidence. Interesting thought, though.
I hope you are ok? I miss your videos,,,
@@dondtektor8537 coming back as soon as I can. I made a post last month in the Community section of RUclips to announce that my mother passed away. Wish I could say I had better news and that I was okay… 😕 It’s a LOT to deal with when you’re the only child and had almost no notice (so many financial institutions…). Videos will resume shortly, I’ve got a good backlog to share!
@@StefDigs I'm so sorry to hear this,yes that would be very hard. My thoughts and prayers go out to you,,,,Don,,,
you must be a Dragon Ball fan. Go Goku
Bahahaha, what’s funny is I never once watched that show. I dunno how this hairstyle came to be, but it’s been like this for over 20 years… 😂🤣
Stef I just want to say I lost my mother 2 days before my bday in 2016 n 2 days before that I put her dog down I’m so proud of the man I made my self and I’m sure your mother is extremely proud of you now where’s my new vid you
Thank you. ❤️ Very tough loss, no doubt about it. I won’t even be back in CT until the first week of July - there’s just so much to do. A new video will come when it comes. 😊
Hey I hope you are great I k ow. Am if you need anything let me know please praying for you
@@billdelaney4222 thank you, I appreciate it! ❤️ I’ll be back soon.
