This Wireless Headphone Package adds factory aptX Low Latency Bluetooth headphones to the standard kit, which keeps audio in step with the threshold even when you swing fast through trash.

That works for mid-range targets in clean ground and falls apart on wet sand, deep silver, or small gold. The Legend transmits three multi-frequency modes (M1 weighted to low conductors, M2 balanced general purpose, M3 weighted to high conductors) and five single-frequency options up to 40 kHz, then samples the returns asynchronously, the same patented sampling method covered by Nokta's USA patent. The practical result is one machine that hits silver coins like a dedicated low-frequency rig and small gold like a high-frequency prospecting machine, on the same swing. FerroCheck adds a quick iron-likelihood readout on every target, which speeds up the dig-or-skip call in trashy ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cfigure\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0760\/1464\/9628\/files\/11000838_stock_5.jpg?v=1725479671\" alt=\"Nokta Legend control panel showing mode select, target ID display, and Bluetooth indicator\"\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuild, Display, and Audio\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Legend weighs 3.0 pounds (1.3 kg) including the LG30 coil, and the carbon-fiber shaft collapses from 52 inches down to 25 inches for backpack travel.
