What's the difference???
I have read lots of stuff about the X-TERRA 70 & 705
what I think is the 705 is the new version of the 70. Is this wrong or right. I am thinking of getting the x-Terra 70 but minelab or any dealers I have seen carry the 70 anymore, but all of them have the 705 Can anyone help me with this.

I can't really answer your question since I don't run either of them. I have heard the 70 is much better than the 705. Sometimes newer, upgraded/improved versons do not make it better.

The 70 has a few less bells and whistles. Their are a few 70's left and at very good prices. I will put it this way. For the way I hunt the 70 is a great unit and the 705 not worth the extra $$ to move up. If I was buying right now I woud get the 705 if for nothing else the 3 year warranty, Beale.

X-Terra 70
Thanks for all of the info and the links.
I have read most of it and it's very useful. I have came to the conclusion that either one would be a good choice. But with all the info I have came across I'm also interested in the Fisher F75. X-Terra70 or 705 vs Fisher F75 any ideas about this.

The F75 is in a league by itself, and is probably a great machine. I know that alot of relic hunters wouldn't have anything else. But as far as a 70/705 goes, the names would make you think that there is not alot of difference, with the 705 being a "little" better, or modern. The 705 is a different monster, IMHO, and it's not for the better. I know that for those who have used the 70, and then try the 705, they are not impressed. I'm one of those. The 70 rocks!
