Yes.......
It really helps when you do things that reduce your depth.
Cuts out those weak targets real good.

Nope..I hunt dirt.
Beach is just another kind of dirt.

Volume max, threshold faint, sensitivity as required.
When you turn down volume, you make it harder to hear weak targets.
When you turn the threshold low enough to cut out weak responses, you are cutting off weak targets also....not just weak falses.The audio cks are shut down to the point that only stronger signals come through.
You can verify this by setting up as normal, then then doing an air test for max distance. Then turning volume and threshold all the way down, check again. You will lose half the detection distance. If you watch the meter, you will still see it jump within the area between the new max distance and the previous max distance but you will hear nothing. The detector still sees it, but there is no audio.
It don't matter where you hunt. when you shut down the audio you are setting a target strength threshold that has to be exceeded to hear a target.

Try everything you hear about. Find out for yourself what works or don't work. Find out what what only works some of the time, and what works all the time. Often you will have to settle for a compromise.
