I'm looking for some advice on which detector I should purchase. I've narrowed it down to a choice between the Garrett Ace 350 and the Teknetics Delta 4000. As far as I can tell they are nearly the same feature wise, but I would like to know which one performs the best? I would also like to know if either one is advanced enough that I won't want to replace it too soon as I gain experience?

Thanks for any advice that you can give including other models in about the same price range.

Thanks
Robert

Those are good machines. The At Pro would be a great upgrade above the two you listed.

Hello and welcome aboard Robert! Good luck on finding the perfect MD ...

Thanks for the advice. I wish I could afford the AT Pro, but I have to get by on a small fixed income. Maybe I might be able to upgrade later on.

Hello ralexander welcome to treasurenet!

You are likely to get as many opinions on the best detector as there are users on treasurenet...

I recently got the ACE 350 and have been pretty happy with the purchase. I am not familiar with the other machine so I can not give you much help on comparison between the two.

The ACE 350 is a good solid capable machine that is simple enough it doesn't take a lot of time to learn. I think you would be happy with it.

I am happy with my Garrett GTI 1500. I like the quality I got for the money and the good service from the company. I find Garrett machines to be user friendly. I am not at all familiar with Teknetics, so I cannot comment on them. I have worked with a 350 and it is a good machine. The plan is to find enough with the 350 that you can afford an upgrade.
