New Detector?

Well, to start off with, are you going to do any beach hunting in wet salt sand ( and more than just a few trips ) ? If so, get the DFX.
It is a multi-frequency machine, disriminates well and don't let the programs fool you. You can sweep it fast, slow and if you want, has tone id ( so targets make different sounds depending on conductivity).
I have one, use it a lot...even on the beaches, but not in the water ( that's what waterproof detectors are for !).

It is easy to operate and get used to. There are tons of options, but I do not adjust most of them. The few I do adjust make it deeper and sensitive...but I always run it stable.
I bought mine a few years ago, and it came with 3 coils...the stock 9.5, the 6x10 DD and the 5.3. Can't remember exactly but it was around $800. It was a used detector...like new with I think 10 or so months left on the warranty. It was a good deal since I got 2 extra coils. Since then, I also bought the Super 12 coil and use that on the beach.
For me, the DFX is a very versatile detector that can hunt in almost any condition.
