[QUOTE="Rusty, post: 16915, member: 455"] Met a number of pro-propectors in WA last year using 5000's, their responses to the same question from me were all similar to what you've heard...not a huge difference between the machines, 5000 finds smaller gold deeper. They generally counciled me to stick with the 4500. Fact is, the 5000 is the latest model, it is better. It's a question of what you're prepared to pay. For mine, I sold my 4500 when we left WA last year and I wish I had it back. If you decide to go for a 4500 my advice is to only buy from a Minelab dealer, or check the serial numbers with Minelab before you buy private to ensure you haven't stumbled onto a counterfeit unit.
