ACE Apex Metal Detector - GARRET

Garrett ACE Apex Metal Detector
The Garrett ACE Apex is a next-generation, highly versatile metal detector designed for enthusiasts seeking maximum precision and comfort in any condition. Thanks to its innovative Multi-Flex technology and wide frequency range, the device effectively detects both large coins and small low-conductivity items, offering advanced target ID, intelligent iron signal control, and excellent stability even in highly mineralized soil and saltwater. With intuitive operation, hybrid audio system, Z-Lynk wireless technology, and a powerful rechargeable battery, the Apex delivers smooth, precise, and comfortable searching—from beaches to rugged terrain with relics.

A new level of flexibility with Multi-Flex technology
At the heart of the device is the innovative Multi-Flex technology, based on an intelligent digital wideband platform, offering unmatched versatility and precision in all conditions. The Apex provides a wide selection of frequencies: 5 kHz, 10 kHz, 15 kHz, 20 kHz, Multi-Frequency, and Multi-Salt, allowing you to perfectly adjust settings to the type of target and ground conditions. Lower frequencies provide better detection of larger, more conductive targets like large silver coins, while higher frequencies are ideal for small, low-conductivity objects such as gold nuggets and thin coins.

Accurate target ID and iron inspection
The Iron Audio feature is a unique solution that helps correctly identify complex iron objects, like caps. Additionally, the Iron Volume system allows you to independently adjust the volume of iron signals without affecting non-iron targets. With eight adjustment levels, unwanted sounds from less important finds can be reduced while maintaining full control over signals from valuable targets. Experienced hunters will appreciate the ability to hear all signals while lowering the volume of less valuable ones.

Precision in all field conditions
The Garrett ACE Apex performs well in nearly any type of prospecting, including coin hunting, relic searching, beach exploration, shallow water panning, or gold prospecting. The advanced Multi-Flex Multi-Frequency technology enables effective detection of objects in various soil types, including highly mineralized ground and saltwater environments. The 175-point ground balance adjustment allows the detector to adapt perfectly to the situation.

Intuitive operation
Convenient buttons for accessing frequently used functions and clear menus make operation quick and comfortable, even for less experienced users. The backlit LCD screen, with large target ID numbers, ensures excellent readability in all lighting conditions.

Hybrid audio system
The Apex uses a hybrid audio system combining the simplicity of binary audio with proportional audio, allowing you to better recognize weak signals and more accurately assess target depth. Additionally, 5-tone audio identification allows for more advanced object discrimination compared to previous Garrett models.

Advanced modes
The device offers six detection modes, including zero, coins, US coins, jewelry, relics, and custom. High-resolution Notch Discrimination, based on 20 pixels including 8 for iron, provides exceptional accuracy in eliminating unwanted objects.

Stability and software updates
The Garrett ACE Apex provides free software updates that enhance overall stability, speed, and precision of ground balance in saltwater, pinpoint accuracy, and tone discrimination between valuable targets and iron. Additionally, integrated Z-Lynk wireless technology transmits audio up to six times faster than Bluetooth, eliminating lag and allowing comfortable wireless searching.

Accuracy and coverage
The included 6" x 11" DD Multi-Flex™ Viper waterproof coil offers comfort and precision in all conditions. The 11" width ensures efficient coverage in large areas such as plowed fields, while the narrow 6" profile allows target separation in iron-rich areas. The coil is designed specifically for Multi-Flex technology and is not compatible with older ACE series models.

Powerful battery and full sound control
The built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides up to 15 hours of use on a single charge. The device charges via the included Micro-USB cable. Additionally, it features 8 levels of sensitivity and depth control, volume control for speaker and headphones, and a 1/8" wired headphone jack.
