[QUOTE="davent, post: 653874, member: 6002"] Love the read Phil. Since I picked up my 2nd hand Zed, I havnt looked back. I wouldn't swap it for anything on the market today. Now the 6000, that's another story. I like it. But......I don't love it. I could easily live without it and make do with a 4500 or 5000 with a selection of coils. I really don't like how it responds to EMI. I hope that a software upgrade can help. Maybe it's my machine? I know others don't think the emi is a problem, but it is with me. Coils....ahhhhh.....the 11" works well, but is a very cheap and nasty build. I know the guys who use the coilteks are happy, and I guess the NF coil users will be to. I'm waiting to see how the new garrett goes in Australia, I like a lot of what it offers for sure. I'm also really pretty excited for the 17x13 NF Zedsearch coil, which I should have in a couple of days I hope. Early rain in the NT today, so the emi ain't gunna get any better until about April! Been a very exciting year or 2 for metal detecting, let's hope that there is enough gold out there to keep us all interested! [/QUOTE]
