Good comparison between the two, I agree the 7 gives the better signal, thanks for the video

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

The 6000 is far superior on the fly shit nuggets, however at depth the 7000 kicks goals.

[@PhaseSkater]

wish theyd release an 8000 series... a decade old machine with how fast tech and AI has gotten is night and day

[@wa_golden_outback2810]

If you can handle the weight of the Z it is a hard machine to go passed. 1 coil, 1 machine does a bloody good job!

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

Agree 100% a great alrounder.

[@Darronsanderson]

Have you tried using the 19" coil on the 7000? ML suggests you could possibbly find larger nuggets, deeper in the ground.

[@zve482]

Good comparison. I’d like to see the deep feature exploited to understand what kind of difference the 7000 has vs. say general.

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

Deep is really only designed for large gold at depth, the detector runs much quieter as the pulses sent into the ground are relaxed reduncing ground noise and also the ability to find smaller pieces due to the decay time. I never use Deep and only use General maybe 10% of the time.

[@jimmyrgv]

Good comparison vid , but I knew it wouldn't be gold at the collar of an old hole , the wash level is a lot deeper there.

[@bennyprospector2620]

7 is deep king. 6 is small target king.

[@FRERABRETZ1]

nope the 7 is now outdated, the 6000 will get 3x the gold than the 7, the 7 will punch deeper but I’ve never seen my friends dig a big hole yet that the 6000 won’t reach

[@zachwybrow638]

if you get the settings right the 7 will beat the 6 for depth and small gold the 6 is neat and an upgrade from the SDC/5000 ect but not even in the same league as the 7.

[@DigDougDig]

The coil wire is fragile on the 6000. If you hunt in thick brush the wire will break. The 6000 will find gold that the Z missed, 0.1 grams at six inches and 0.3 grams at 10 inches. Odd shapes the old machines didn't hear. The six with a gold hawk coil is dynamite in the creeks.

[@FRERABRETZ1]

@@DigDougDig yes the standard 11” coil on the 6000 is only good as a frizbee, the 9” Goldhawk is the boss

[@FRERABRETZ1]

@@zachwybrow638 6000 will keep you busy all day in any ground as long as you don’t use the standard coils

[@zachwybrow638]

@@FRERABRETZ1 never said they were bad, great light option for those that can't hold the 7 all day but not as sensitive on small gold at depth and might miss the big one the 7 just hears

[@klackers]

Yes.

[@diggingwithphasetech]

Spewing it wasn't gold. You did well digging that hole with that small pick haha. Your Zed almost seemed to be reacting to more ground noise in Difficult??

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

There was some ground noise I agree and Normal actually reacted more however my techniques alow me to work the ground to determine if the indeed the noise is a target or mineralisation 90% of the time.

[@billgabriel8042]

Is that on general or high yield?

[@topendgold9284]

Zed still the king

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

Agree, Have done lots of testing with both the 6 and 7 and yes the 6 does have an advantage on small pieces at depth however overall the 7 still outshines on deeper large targets.

[@waynereeves9084]

@@tryhardprospecting6862 And how many deep large nuggets do we dig these days..like none and the 6 will beat the 7 in every other department plus only 2.2kg

[@topendgold9284]

@@waynereeves9084 don't know about you Wayne, but I'm still getting good gold. Just as many over 1 gram as I get under, and still a few multi ounces. And I have both a 7k and a 6k. Also, where I prospect, emi and ground noise is an issue, and the zed kills the 6 in these areas, which means more gold. The zed sucks when it comes to long hot days though.

[@goldennuts9590]

@@topendgold9284 Not in the golden triangle,nothing but fly shit left,6000 is killing it,still plenty of people burying bigger nugs to make a KZbin video,but you get that.

[@waynereeves9084]

The seventeen inch coil is sub part. Wouldn't buy one. 11 inch rules. You nearly always come home with more gold with the 6000.

[@tryhardprospecting6862]

I agree totally, the 17 iunch is really dissapointing. And yes the 6000 will always come home with more small pieces thats what it was designed for, however the 7000 will always out do it when it comes to overall size and weight of the gold found. As a fulltime professional prospector I have used both and the 7 leads everytime.

[@gregrobustellini386]

@@tryhardprospecting6862 rubbish if the nuggets are there the 6000 will pick them up regardless of size

[@topendgold9284]

@@gregrobustellini386 , yep you will get them with the 6 as well, however, you might get a lot more targets with the 6, and spend more time digging .03s when the zed misses them, and you only dig bigger nuggets, which means you get more weight. I agree with tryhard. I have both machines, and I always get more with the zed.

[@topendgold9284]

Are you talking about the 17" for the 6K or the NF17" for the Zed?

[@jonathanmillichip9296]

Yeah come home with 20 bits of gold that weigh a total of .4 of a gram with the 6000 and 70,000 lead shot to go with it or come home with a nice chunk 3 or 4 grammar with the 5000 or zed, I know which one I'd be sticking with

[@markskewed9620]

You say you use normal with sensitivity 11 . What number threshold do you use?

HI MArk I use Thbreshold 26

[@timvivoda5208]

If the 6000 was better than the 7000 it would be the 8000 .and be well over 8000 dollars .
