– MINELAB MANTICORE High-Power Multi-IQ+ Waterproof Metal Detector for Adults with Advanced Target ID (11" Double-D Coil Included)

This is the best quality product I've seen in a long time,it just sings quality,had my reservations to order it from Amazon US but didn't need to worry the import duties were withing the price saved hundreds on UK product Fri. Same company ,paid a small fee to have it fast tracked from USA and it does what it says on the in fast tracked it arrived a few days later brilliant UPS,cannot fault it just need a degree on how to work it now,5 stars guys ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best on the market.

This is a great metal detector, I had upgraded from the equinox 800 and it’s a big improvement, it’s expensive but in my view worth it. Does take a bit of getting used to though and there are still a few things I think Minelab will iron out in future software updates. The main things I like are the full colour screen which shows iron as red numbers, and the 2D display which gives you a third reference point other than sound and the ID - I dig a lot less trash than before. Also it’s very powerful, but in reality you can’t have the sensitivity up to the top. Overall would recommend, and remember to register for the 3 year warranty when you get it.

I have spent a lot of time metal detecting and average around 20 hours a week swinging a detector. I have used several different machines over the years, and the Minelab Manticore is hands down my favorite detector I have owned. There are plenty of detectors that can find targets, but what separates the Manticore is the amount of information and customization it gives you. This is a machine designed for someone who wants to understand what is happening under the coil and fine tune the detector for specific environments. Pros: The biggest advantage of the Manticore for me is the ability to customize profiles, adjust ferrous limits, and modify the audio. I do a lot of detecting around the Great Lakes region where magnetite and black sand can create extremely difficult conditions. Many detectors struggle because good targets can get masked by all the mineralization and chatter. Being able to open up the ferrous limits, adjust tones, and create specific profiles allows me to pull gold and silver from areas where other people simply walk over targets because their machines are either rejecting them or they cannot interpret what they are hearing. This level of customization is where the Manticore really shines. The 2D target identification screen is another feature that is hard to appreciate until you use it. Instead of relying only on a number, you can look at the target trace and combine that with the audio response to make a much more educated decision before digging. No detector tells you exactly what is underground, but the 2D screen gives you a lot more information. The separation on this machine is fantastic. Although the included 11-inch coil performs great, I find myself primarily using the M8 coil. I really like the target separation it provides, especially in trashy areas, and I am still impressed with the amount of depth I get from an 8-inch coil. For the type of detecting I do, the M8 has become my go-to setup. The waterproofing was also a huge factor for me. A lot of my detecting is around lakes, beaches, and in the water, so having a detector that I can confidently take into those environments is extremely important. The overall build quality is exactly what you would expect from a detector in this price range. It is lightweight, balanced, collapses easily, and is comfortable enough to swing for long hunts. Cons: This is not a detector that I would recommend buying if you have no intention of learning the settings. You can absolutely turn it on and find targets, but the real value of the Manticore comes from understanding the adjustments and building profiles for your conditions. The price is obviously high. There are great detectors available for significantly less money, but you are paying for the ability to extract performance in difficult environments where many detectors start to struggle. Bottom Line: The Minelab Manticore is not just powerful because it detects deep. What makes it special is the amount of control it gives the user. The adjustable ferrous limits, custom profiles, audio control, 2D target identification, and coil options allow you to build the machine around the environment you are hunting. For someone who detects casually a few times a year, it is probably more machine than you need. For someone who spends serious time detecting and wants every possible advantage, especially in difficult mineralized ground or water conditions, the Manticore is incredible.

Bin kein Profi-Schatzsucher und Schätze waren nicht mein vorrangiges Motiv. Ich suchte nach einem Gerät, um alle möglichen Arten von Metallobjekten (Rohre, Leitungen ... gerne auch Wertgegenstände ;)) mit möglichst präzisen Tiefen- und Typangaben finden zu können. Funktioniert!

Very professional very professional built. This is by far the best and most professional metal detector that I have ever owned. Great depth and discrimination.

Nachdem ich mir 2 mal einen Billig Metalldetektor gekauft habe, habe ich dieses Mal einen teureren Metalldetektor gekauft habe (Minelab Manticore). Und ich muss sagen, Leute lieber etwas mehr Geld ausgeben als zu wenig, das macht sich ungemein bemerkbar. Alles unter 500 Euro ist, soweit ich das einschätzen kann, ziemlicher Müll! Mit dem Manticore bin ich Top zu Frieden und begeistert wie erstaunlich gut das professionelle Gerät arbeitet. Werde den Hersteller (Minelab) vermutlich mein Leben lang treu bleiben. Super Gerät, kann ich nur empfehlen Lg

What more can I say? I have the XP Daus 2 and this unit, and both perform well in different situations. Currently, I prefer the Manticore when detecting on the beach. I have already discovered many silver coins with it. I also want to try out different coils.
