Teknetics Delta 4000 11 DD or Garret Ace 350

Looking to get into this hobby and looking at Teknetics Delta 4000 11 DD and Garret Ace 350. Need some reviews on them. Both have a 11 DD. Pro's & Cons.

I just bought a Delta last month for my daughter (and back up for me |:cheering: ). I haven't used it much other than to help out my kid. What I do like about it; 1. very light 2. pretty accurate up to six inches 3. I like the tone ID vs. the dongs on the Ace. 4. pinpoint is spot on!. For a low cost detector I think the Delta is a great buy.

I really want depth about 8 or greater. any really great metal detectors below $400? I want to have pinpoint as a feature.

You could probably get 8 with the 11 coil. I was using the stock 8.

Might look into the Teknetics gamma 6000 with 11 DD coil + the 13 coil . That is another option.

Hi Robert!

Teknetics Delta is a good choice to begin with... First machine I used was a Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100 that I exchanged for a Discovery 2200. I finally brought it back to the store when I found my Fisher F5 on eBay... I aquire this almost new F5 for less then 350$...

You may find, even on this forum in the clasifieds, a very good machine for almost the same budget. Take a look at Spike's Garrett At Pro... He's asking 450$ + shipping... It was on my wish list, but I'm canadian and I may have some issue with the customs... That's why I didn't grab it

I used a 350, now use the T2 (looks similar to delta).... The 350 is just too front heavy, and its possible the delta performs better :dontknow:
