[QUOTE="ironrock, post: 600850, member: 5581"] My 2 bobs worth, was considering buying either this new 6 or the 7, but decided to reread up on some old posts regarding the 5 to 7 comparison, what i deduced from that is that the 7 is probably 20% better overall than the 5 and mostly better on the speci's and porous type gold. In my opinion Minelab is going down the wrong path with respects to not giving us the user the ability to choose what coil we want to use, be it aftermarket or genuine the aftermarket coils being made now for the 7 makes this point loud and clear. I think having the choice that the 5 has in giving many settings combinations is the way to go, and in saying that i just scored a near new hardly used 5 for 4k and can't wait to give it a whirl!! And since the 7 is STILL classified as the flagship, i would say that this new 6 will be almost identical to the 5 performance wise, maybe it will be better on the 0.002 fly**** , but you can have that, i do not fancy digging 30 holes in a day just to make 1 gram, that to me sounds like torture!!
