For the Garrett model: GTI 2500

Very Pleased with GTI 2500

I've been using Garrett's GTI 2500 for about 1 1/2 year now and very pleased in its performance.

Newest Detectors

Pro Pirate Detector

The new Detector Pro Pirate is out and is a nice addition to the company lineup. It is crystal controlled and operates at 2.4Khz. This makes a very stable platform to build on. The 8 in. co-planar coil is RF insulated against electro-static interference. The headphones are piezo electric transducers from which the audio comes to you at 400Hz.

Search mode is the silent search slow motion discrimination. This is about as close to turn on and go as you can get. There are 2 knobs, Volume and Discriminator controls and of course the electronics are contained in the ear cup Read More

Sovereign GT Detector

The Sovereign GT is such a machine. It transmits on 17 different frequencies simultaneously all with the same level of strength. It covers a bandwidth from 1.5 Khz to 25.5 Khz. This ability will allow the machine to respond to a wider range of targets so that the user will make more good finds. The GT stands for Gold and Treasure from what I have understood. It is equipped with the DD circular coil in a 10" or 8" size. This type of coil helps the detector to eliminate even more ground noise or mineralization.Read More
