Omega 8000 vs T2

I need a little direction, ive only been hunting for a few months and i bought the Garrett Ace 350 as my first machine and up to now ive been very happy with it but its time for an upgrade. I hunt 90% of the time on the beach, i want a machine that can go deeper, especially on the wet, ive decided on 3 different machines and would like to know opinions on which would be best between the T2, the Omega 8000, or the AT Pro........or if anyone knows of a different machine thats great. On the beach especially on the wet......thank you
 
Personally feel the Omega is radio shack built and felt it was going to fall apart while swinging.....T2 on other hand seems to be built better built even if a little heavier...
 
I never used the AT Pro nor the T2. I've used and Omega 8000 for a short time and still have an F5 (two almost identical machines internally). On the beach I much prefer the F19 to the F5. Not quite the same story in a normal dirt setting but in sand I find more stuff with the F19. I'm not sure if it has to do with frequency but it's not even close in that particular setting with same coil on both machines. My beaches are fresh water though, no salt.
 
If you are talking about wet salt beaches the CZ's, Excals, Sovereigns, and Minelab FBS machines are the best. You can make the ones you listed work but they won't do as good.
 
I appreciate all the responses. I forgot to mention I'm on a strict budget and I can't really afford to go over $700. I'm just looking for an upgrade to the Ace 350. Thanks in advance!!
 
already showed you one that is tested and calibrated this year for 399 $ in the other thread but as the saying goes :buds:
