[QUOTE="Aries, post: 674084, member: 23389"] Don't know if it helps but I have both. I use 6000 80% of time and 4500 about 20% But if i had to go to one detector it would DEFINITELY be the [B]4500.[/B] My reasoning is, Picks up the larger deeper nuggets that the 6 misses. Increased coverage ( the 17 inch coil on the 6000 is a dog). Even though I use it less I get more weight from the 4500 in return. Definitely more reliable. Better coil selection. There are times the 6000 is unbeatable especially on shallow patches of tiny gold and it is a dream to carry. But just about everyone I know since getting a 6000 has an increased nugget count but a reduced total weight of gold found. [/QUOTE]
