So it looks like the famous Bulgarian metal detector manufacturer Golden Mask is entering the beginner metal detector market with a digital device! There is no price information yet, but they promise it will be cheap.
There will be two modifications, differing only in the search frequency — a version with 18 kHz and another with 24 kHz. What — Entry-level tweeters, a good start for the manufacturer! At the moment, all entry-level metal detectors are manufactured with low frequency — from 6 kHz to 10 kHz, and here we have immediately from 18 kHz. The right decision, I think.
It can be seen that the Golden Mask One has a lot in common with the top digital model — Golden Mask 5+ SE, but the menu and number of functions have been changed and reduced. I wonder whether they will supply wireless headphones or whether the device will only work with wired headphones? It is still unknown.
As you can see, Golden Mask 5+ SE has also undergone some changes, but we will write about this later. In the meantime, Golden Mask really surprised, everyone knows that the manufacturer had only analog models made for beginners, take the same Golden Mask 1+, but now there will be digital.
Updated — metal detector settings Golden Mask ONE
According to settings. Preset ground balance, the user will have access to the following functions: Golden Mask ONE+ (SENS, VOLUME, Audio volume, Disc level) — sensitivity, hardware volume, audio volume, discrimination level.
The manufacturer has the first video with settings and tests for buried targets and target separation on their Youtube channel:
Video — The results are not bad, it is clear that the detector also supports frequency shift.
More data coming soon — Neither the specifications nor the menu are known yet. Maybe new coils will appear? We’ll see. Stay tuned.
