Aquasound Detector Like New! $1950
This detector was manufactured 2 years ago for me. They are custom built by a couple of very talented people in Florida and modeled after a Nautilus detector. The technology has now been around for quite a while, but depth and sensitivity in the right sand cannot be matched This detector is virtually brand new and comes with both water coil and land coils and each has its own shaft to make the transition from land to water much easier. Paid $2900 new.
The Aquasound detector is a very high powered TR unit (52V to the coil in high powered mode and 32V in low power). It has a custom built waterproof case that is a very strong, thick walled, clear polycarbonate (Lexan). The Aquasound must be used away from any black sands. The cleaner/whiter the sand, the deeper it goes. Tuning the machine is also critical (this is usually maximised after about 10 minutes of use). The coil loves to be submerged in water where the electronics can be really wound up.
"Good" tuning will give you a depth of 18" but with "Great" tuning you will see 20" plus. The tuning then incorporates getting both "Null" controls centered really tight and then the 10 turn volume/threshold down really low.
It comes with instruction manual, charger, and a few accessories that I ordered with it. I am located in West Palm Beach and encourage a pick up in person.
