Rob Allison 63 Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) Hey Bill, Have to agree, Detector Pro was ran by Gary for so many years. He was great to deal with. Now our fellow Minelab dealer Ronnie is from Gold Diggers owns Detector Pro and things are looking even better! From Gray Ghost to Nugget Busters, to Black Widow's, now even better the Platinum models of each with much better speakers. These new Gray Ghost for the Gold Monster will be great. The Gray Ghost Amphibians for the Equinox series have also been a huge hit. Congrats to DetectorPro Edited December 8, 2018 by Rob Allison 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rob Allison 63 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Thanks Bill. I will give them a whirl and report back to Ronnie at DetectorPro/Gold Digger. I'm sure they would be a big hit here in the Southwest for all the Nuggetshooters that are using the Minelab Gold Monster 1000. I have to say, the stock headphones work well, but the cord is junk and way too short. I couldn't count how many times I have snagged it, I'm surprised the cord hasn't broken yet. I'm sure at some point, just about every GM1000 user would invest in a good pair of headphones for the unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, if but only if a fully compatible pigtail also is required and is available. Not sure whether a pigtail would be needed or not by the Gray Ghosts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nugget Shooter 4,614 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Nope no pigtail needed and I would like volume adjustment on both cups if possible.... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fredmason 1,135 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 You could get an 1/8 to 1/4 adaptor for use in standard fittings....I use one on my Sony mdr-j10 phones...for your many other detectors. fred Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Goldseeker4000 98 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) Im the one that first talked with Ronnie to talk him into making a pair of head phones for the Monster. I wrote up a review on them on detector prospector forum and also sent him the review with good pics. Not the pics shown, but they work great and I dont have to use an adaptor that puts strain on the jack. People did not seem too interested in them as they were content to use non at all or use a jimmy rigged adaptor. I don't get it. If all of you who have the monster try these, you won't be disappointed. The sound is suppurb, the quality is top shelf. They are robust and they don't get hung up under your knee as you arw digging or go to stand up after digging your target. Call Ronnie and order a pair. You will be glad you did. Im sure Bill will agree. Edited December 16, 2018 by Goldseeker4000 left a word out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Goldseeker4000 98 Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Go to detector prospector forum. Go to minelab detectors and scroll down to a thread on gold monster headphones coming out soon. Basically everything in my review that Bill recently put in a youtube video. Bottom line they are worth the $130-150 bucks that Detector Pro will be charging. The gold series refers to the audio components used in them. There is silver, gold and platinum. Platinum refering to the highest level of sound quality and gold is next highest. If you have ever had a pair of Detector pro headphones like the nugget busters then you know exactly the quality. If not then ask some of your detecting friends in your area to listen to the sound and how they feel on your head. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boorx4 151 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Hi Guys, We finally could have a winner here. All my prospecting buddies and my self have been using the Nugget Busters head phones for many, many years. They are the bomb, and I miss them dearly when out with my Monster. I cuss out those worthless stock head phones and cord every time it gets hung up on a bush, tree branch, and my self. UGH! Looks like we could have some hope on the horizon. Keep the faith, Bob 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Goldseeker4000 98 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 The last time I talked to Ronnie, he wasn't sure there was going to be enough interest to warrant him putting these into full scale production due to cost of production out weighing demand. So please if anyone has hopes of getting a pair call Ronnie at Detector Pro and let him know that you want to purchase a pair 1 (908) 595- 9933. Let him know Reese (Goldseeker4000) and Bill Southern and Rob Allison are going to bat for him in regards to these headphones. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
