Which Vanquish Is Right for You?
Vanquish 360 – Affordable and Beginner-Friendly
The 360 is ideal for newcomers who want a simple, waterproof detector with essential features. It offers 3 target tones and 6 discrimination segments, enough for basic filtering, but lacks advanced control and audio flexibility. It’s a great entry point for casual hunts in parks or beaches.
Vanquish 460 – Feature-Rich Without Breaking the Bank
For just £70 more, the 460 adds several upgrades that make a real difference in the field:
- Wireless Audio: Bluetooth® LE Audio support means no cables and faster response.
- Backlit Display: Essential for low-light or night detecting.
- 30 Discrimination Segments: Offers much finer control over target filtering.
- Adjustable Iron Bias: Lets you tune out unwanted iron signals with precision.
- Pinpoint Mode: Helps zero in on targets with greater accuracy.
These features make the 460 a smart choice for hobbyists who want more control and comfort without jumping to the top-tier price.
Vanquish 560 & Pro-Pack – Full Performance and Versatility
The 560 builds on the 460 with:
- 5 Target Tones: More nuanced audio feedback.
- V12X Coil: Larger coil for better depth and coverage.
- Extra Iron Bias Level: More tuning flexibility.
The 560 Pro-Pack adds serious value:
- Includes both V12X and V8X coils for terrain flexibility.
- Comes with ML60 wireless earbuds.
- Offers a complete accessory bundle for all-day detecting.
