I canxed my order this evening. Not because I don't think it's a good machine. I think it will be great but after taking my wife and daughter detecting with me there's no comparing audio to visual identification. I just got my daughter the ACE 250 this weekend and she and my wife have been using that but everytime they get a good beep I have to stop what I'm doing and go over their find with the GTI 2500 so they can decide if it's worth digging. I dont' see this changing with the AT Pro even though it should be better at tuning out junk. They will still be calling me over to see if it's coin size or soda can size.
I also like the imaging very much so I'm thinking of spending the extra $80 to get them the GTI 1500. For anyone who has not used imaging and is thinking about the AT Pro, I strongly recommend researching the comparably priced GTI 1500. There's alot to be said for visual imaging. Of course, it all depends on how you plan on using the detector but for most coin and jewelry hunters I would bet that the GTI 1500 or 2500 would serve you better.
