Best Metal Detector for GOLD? Minelab GPX 6000 vs. GPZ 7000

How good is the GPX 6000 really? Today I’m comparing Minelab’s two best metal detectors for gold: the GPX 6000 and the GPZ 7000. I’m keen on doing further testings to compare the machines with a variety of gold nuggets in different sizes and variable depths.

Thanks for sharing the difference between the two. Also we can see your face just fine with the fly net down. Looking forward to your next video.

OMG 😱 those flies would have drove me crazy. Thank you for showing the difference between the 6k and 7k detectors. Exciting to see you find some gold.

Hey krissy I got a 6000 about a month ago went back to a spot I pulled just shy of an ounce at with the 5000, about the size of tennis court no more signals but with the 6000 another 5 very small bits & deep bird shot, as you know don’t matter how small they are they’re in the jar & add up nicely cheers & thanks for your effort in making your videos all the best

You should run the 14" double d in the highest manual setting you can manage in hot areas with the 6000, you can still pick up 0.040g specs with that coil it's power is insane.

Krissy thanks for your tremendous efforts. I have a Garrett At Pro Gold that has been laying on the living room floor for 3 years! Your videos have pumped new life into me (I am 75 yoa!) So I am going to have another go at detecting!

Thanks for taking the time to educate us Krissy and share the knowledge. And those flies....your determination to get the video. We have mosquitoes here like that. I stay indoors when so bad. As always wishing you all the best, Deb

[larsyou]

I was hoping one day that you could try the 6000. Thank you for filming it and I look forward to more observations!
Keep that net on! Gotta stay sane for us!
Loved the video as always. Thank you…

[raybulmer]

Very interesting. Well produced. You make a video that is easy and pleasant to watch. Thanks.

[brentevje]

Well done on the maximum effort to show us the difference in the detectors. Best of luck with the flies.

Fantastic again Krissy, I took my 6000 out this morning and got a large bit of dozer blade a hot rock and huge thing that looked like it could be sweet potato even though they don't grow wild here, tomorrows another day, the 6000 doesn't miss anything, I can't believe there is still so much rubbish around in areas I know have had a 5000 and 7000 over them, have a good day.

Great vid krissy in my view the 6000 is a bit more noisier detector than than z, the 6 is more sensitive to the ground minerlisation but doesnt go as deep unless you throw on the bigger coil, on, if you are after the smaller stuff the 6 is the way to go, its a good machine but i would be too fustrated trying to know whats ground noise and whats not, , lets be honest ground noise is a pain in the butt lol, but thats part of the game, , see you out there, , its only my opinion, ,,cheers

Howdy from California, 23 pieces in a Spot hammered by 7000 last week. I have run 4000, 4500, 5000, and SDC. I prospect in rugged country, the lighter machine is a dream to pack in and operate in brush with the Blue Tooth Headphones. It hears smaller bits at depth than any machine I have run. Did I mention dead simple set up and operation.

Footage wasn’t bad with your fly net down. Leave it down. Those flies are shocking.

[sionetohale]

Another fine video Krissy, them flies were some super annoying flying pests, hope you don't have to eat as many next week! stay safe

[weshawkins]

Excellent video. I always like the comparison videos. After having my Link Technologies modified GPX 5000 it’s hard for me to pull the plug on the 6000. Mostly because of the lack of iron discrimination with the 6000 and I can find those two little nuggets you found quite easily with my 5000.

[ruiencarnacao]

thanks krissy... from Portugal, very nice watch your videos and learn a lot with them. OBRIGADO

[beverlytim]

What is your settings On the 7000? Sensitivity, threshold, audio smooth on or off? Thanks. Great video

[rickharrington]

I have an older buddie who has been having trouble with his 5K & 2300 finding gold. Primarily due to his poor hearing, he's just not hearing the softer signals, although he picks up lots of rubbish because these are always invariably loud. He refuses to wear headphones & I couldn't convince him to try boost speakers. On our last trip he upgraded to the 6K & has had his most successful trip ever. My conclusion regarding the new purchase is that the 6K is louder on all targets & my colleague can now hear them. I can recommend this machine to any hard of hearing prospectors 😁😁

[RustBucketAdventures]

Thanks Krissy! Yet another great weekend video! love it!

[uncobazz]

Hey Krissy
You know how to run the 7000 to get the best out of it, it would be fantastic if you ran the 6000 for a solid month to get your knowledge up then compare the two
I greatly respect your option and skill level, hopefully ML will contact you after reading this and provide you with the 6000!
Keep up the good work and stop eating flies!
