READ ME FIRST
We are taking Pre-Orders for the All New Garrett Vortex. There is currently no set date for delivery. We will do everything that we possibly can to expedite your order. We do not require you to pay upfront and you will not be charged until your Metal Detector is ready to ship. You can cancel your pre-order at anytime before it ships. The Vortex is now expected to start shipping around Thanksgiving time.
VX7
MORE POWER THAN VX5
More advanced. Includes more frequency and mode options than VX5, including the powerful Multi-Frequency Salt mode for wet sand and saltwater surf use. Two-tiered MD-MF Target ID display (with separate ferrous and non-ferrous target scales). Additional audio tones plus adjustable Recovery Speed.
INCLUDES BEACH MODE AND MULTI-FREQUENCY SALT OPERATION!
Utilize the power of MD-MF Technology and Multi-Salt operation. Smooth operation and deep Target ID accuracy along wet salt beaches and in the surf. Fully submersible to 16 feet.
RECOVERY SPEED CONTROL
Select from Standard or Fast speed. Increased recovery/reactivity speed helps you more clearly distinguish adjacent targets. A great benefit for competition hunts and for hunt sites filled with metallic trash that might otherwise mask good targets.
DUAL TARGET ID SCALE
When operating in Multi-Frequency, the VX7’s Target ID system displays both a ferrous target scale and a non-ferrous scale. Complex targets may indicate on both scales simultaneously. More target information . . . so you can make better dig decisions!
WIRELESS READY!
Built-in Z-Lynk wireless technology means you can search without cords attached to your detector.

IRON VOLUME - CONTROL WHAT YOU HEAR
Iron Volume allows you to decrease the volume of ferrous (iron) targets, while the volume of non-ferrous targets remains at normal level. Experienced treasure hunters often like hearing all targets, but will appreciate the option to decrease the volume of undesired items. Eight adjustment levels.
FOUR (4) FREQUENCY OPTIONS
Choose from two powerful single frequencies (5 kHz or 13 kHz) or search with one of two Vortex simultaneous Multi-Frequency options (the traditional Multi or Multi-Frequency Salt for saltwater beach use).
SEARCH MODE VERSATILITY - Choose from 5 options:
- Zero Discrimination
- Beach Mode
- Standard Mode (ideal for hunting relics, jewelry, and most international coins)
