The Garrett Vortex VX9 is the professional model in the Vortex lineup. It offers advanced target control, multiple frequency choices, and reliable performance in difficult search areas.
As a result, the VX9 is an excellent choice for serious detectorists. Use it for treasure hunting, relic hunting, coin shooting, beach detecting, and competition hunts.
Advanced Three-Tier Target Identification
The Garrett Vortex VX9 features a full three-tier Multi-Dimensional Target ID display. This advanced system provides more target information before you dig.
In addition, two ferrous scales help identify unwanted iron. Therefore, you can separate promising finds from trash more effectively. This feature is especially helpful in iron-filled and high-trash areas.
Multiple Frequency Options
Choose the right frequency for your ground conditions and targets. The VX9 offers five single-frequency options:
5 kHz,Β 9 kHz,Β 13 kHz,Β 18 kHz,Β 25 kHz
Additionally, the detector includes two simultaneous Multi-Frequency options. Multi-Salt technology also helps improve performance in wet sand and saltwater environments. Consequently, the VX9 can handle a wide range of detecting conditions.
Adjustable Recovery Speed
Extra Recovery Speed controls let you fine-tune the detectorβs response. For example, you can adjust its performance for target density, ground conditions, and your hunting style.
FAST Mode works well during competition hunts and in trash-filled locations. It helps separate targets that sit close together.
Meanwhile, THIN COINS Mode targets fine, lower-conductive coins. These may include hammered silver coins, thin gold coins, and other difficult targets.
Waterproof Construction
The Garrett Vortex VX9 is fully submersible to 16 feet. Therefore, you can search beaches, streams, shallow water, and wet ground with confidence.
Furthermore, its rugged waterproof design makes it suitable for demanding outdoor conditions.
Built-In Z-Lynk Wireless Technology
Built-in Garrett Z-Lynk technology provides convenient wireless audio. Simply pair the detector with compatible Garrett Z-Lynk headphones or accessories.
However, Garrett MS-3 Z-Lynk headphones and other wireless accessories are sold separately.
Lightweight and Easy to Transport
The Garrett Vortex VX9 weighs only 3 pounds with the coil cover installed. As a result, it remains comfortable to carry during longer hunts.
The detector extends to 56.75 inches for use. Then, it compacts to 24.75 inches for easier transportation and storage.
