[QUOTE="trashmagnet, post: 38129, member: 1080"] the atx would only have to beet or match to 5k if it was the same price, since it's not it just has to work pretty good in it's own right. the atx is designed to be a mid level machine not a top of the range beater, it's designed to do a lot of different stuff not just hunt gold. from what I have seen so far it will suit somebody that does a lot of different styles of detecting not just gold. normally a detector that is designed to a lot of differant things will not be as good as a detector designed to do one thing so I think comparing an atx to a 5k is unfair to the atx, if garret brought out a detector designed for gold detecting only and had a $5500 price tag then it would have to match a 5k but they have not. apples and oranges I reckon. regards [/QUOTE]
