[QUOTE="PhaseTech, post: 506512, member: 3149"] 5000 just gives you more options. Fine Gold is slightly more sensitive than Enhance on most targets, but there are still some targets where Enhance can be better, particularly with a bigger coil. As Pat says, how quiet the machine runs comes down to settings. Put it this way, a 5000 in Enhance in factory settings, vs a new 4500 in Enhance in factory settings is virtually identical. I do like the 1-20 Gain adjustment on the 5000, gives you a little more fine tuning ability. Regarding timings on the 5000, I use Fine Gold a lot of the time, switch to Enhance if I hit really bad ground. Normal when using a DD, and Sens Extra when working very mild ground with a small mono. I also use Salt Gold when taking it in the beach. [/QUOTE]
