the vanquish 540 for me has been just an absolute joy to use,
i purposely pick big, old parks and have at it! it's ability to id accurately at depth, along with excellent audio makes it a really fun detector.lightweight,and very well balanced, especially with the 8" coil on board.minelab's multi-iq ,in my view, allows the detector to 'find" good stuff that's probably been over looked by other
detectors in the past.i am talking parks that have been 'cooked' for many years
and are hardly hunted any more. detector is worth every penny they get for it in my view.

(h.h.!)
