Garrett ACE APEX HP with Headphones Metal Detector

Product Information

Garrett Apex has an audio gain control and separate control for iron volume. We should mention that there was no such possibility in many previous metal detector models, which was completely inconvenient when using the devices. CE that inherits all the best practices applied in the previous metal detector models. Probably, Ace Apex will follow in the steps of the successful models of this product line and become the best selling metal detector all over the world. This technology could now gather target information from the use of several frequencies simultaneously. The differences in how frequencies reacted with different targets were now harmonised. Let’s have a look at a video by US detectorist “Treasure Outdoors” where he compares both detectors on a buried 14k gold ring. These tests do have their merits and are useful but aren’t conclusive.

Again, the Minelab Vanquish 540 manual gives you a detailed look at the advanced functionality it has, especially over the Ace Apex. The Minelab Vanquish 540 manual can be found here. Garrett Ace Apex vs Minelab Vanquish 540 conclusion This could be in the form of overhead or underground power cables or a nearby mobile phone transmitter for example. Note: at this time, the Apex software upgrade is not supported by other Windows operating systems or by Apple systems. I have a more in depth article on the Minelab Vanquish range here. Once the patent that Minelab had taken out on this technology expired, other manufacturers were then free to reverse engineer it. Garrett Apex vs Vanquish 540The detector comes with automatic and manual ground balance settings, allowing you to adjust to even highly mineralized grounds. For APEX users who are beginners, I would still recommend starting out with one of the coins programs and get about 20-40 hours on the machine before making any adjustments. Once you get a few hours on the APEX and understand what it is trying to tell you, will have an easier time setting up your own custom program. Enjoy The APEX!

The Garrett ACE Apex comes with the multi-flex feature which means the ability to operate at several frequencies. In this case, the machine can operate on 4 different ones: Three reasons not to buy a Garrett Ace Apex? Quite a statement, but if you are serious about your metal detecting, read on, and you will see why it may also be a valid one. There are also two simultaneous options pre-built into the device. One is a sult-optimized option, and one is more suited for general soil conditions. This added option specifically for salty beaches helped land this metal detector on this year’s best metal detector for Beaches and best multipurpose metal detectors of 2023 lists. Adjustable Frequency Options This advanced metal detector from Garrett shows on its screen a unique identifier number known as the digital target identifier (Target ID), the number ranging from 0 to 99. The lower frequencies on the Ace Apex are great for finding large and highly conductive targets like silver. The higher frequencies are great at finding small and low conductive targets like gold or hammered silver coins.This includes adjustable frequency levels, notch discrimination, multiple sensitivity settings, and more. All of those settings are important if you’re serious about metal prospecting. Being able to get them without breaking the bank is a huge plus. Finally, the Vanquish has an “Iron Bias” adjustable function which the Ace Apex doesn’t. When Minelab first launched their Multi IQ system, this function was included right at the last minute.

I nearly forgot to tell you about my favorite feature on the AT Max! This model is completely waterproof up to 10 feet. This is huge if you want to metal detect in rivers, streams, and shallow lakes. You will no longer have to worry about dropping your metal detector in the water and ruining it. It also comes with Garrett’s MS-3 Z-Lynk wireless headphones. Garrett Ace Apex vs Garrett AT Max The detector has a weatherproof design for dusty, humid, or wet environments; and it is fully submersible to 10-foot depth. Selecting the correct search mode also depends on the terrain type, targets you want to find, expected size, and depth. The available detection mode in the ACE Apex include: Discrimination defines how good is a metal detector at seeing between just a piece of iron and copper targets or gold nuggets. This model has 20 discrimination points to add or exclude from the discrimination segment during the metal detecting process.

New Garrett 6×11 ACE Viper DD Search Coil

When you take a look at the ACE 400, you’ll notice that there’s a noticeable difference in build quality compared to some cheaper models out there. This detector is solid and well-made. The profile is simple, consisting of a base pole, a small control box, and a sizable coil. The Apex target audio provides the simplicity of binary audio (found on existing ACE detectors) with the additional benefits of subtle proportional audio for faint targets.
