[QUOTE="XLOOX, post: 598968, member: 16174"] Up front, I have never seen or used a ATX Extreme. Other than the substantial 3kg weight its specs read like a dream but it is $4400 new. QED is half the weight & half the price but not waterproof or iron detect or non motion mode (but neither are the ML PI s) ATX Extreme has been out since late 2013 but you dont see/hear of many people with one in spite of Garretts distributor network. In 6 years I wouldve expected more news if it was a winner. QED came out early 2017. Also not so many out there yet but only a couple of distributors. Well supported by Aus designer & manufacturer. PL4 just released. Frankly if you are considering the ATX Extreme for that sort of money ($4400), the competition is not the QED but new MLs, so you might as well just get a ML5000 or SDC2300 new and be 100% certain you have a high quality, well suppported, Oz proven detector that most of the serious nugget detectorists use.
