The XP DEUS II is a fully wireless multi-frequency metal detector that communicates between coil, remote control, headphones, and optional pinpointer using XP's patented radio protocol system. Built for detectorists hunting coins, relics, and gold across mineralized ground, saltwater beaches, and iron-choked sites, this platform pairs Fast Multi Frequency technology with latency-free target transmission for fast recovery speed and accurate target ID. The WS6-ST Master configuration ships with a 9-inch FMF coil, wireless stereo headphones with onboard controls, and an S-telescopic rod for field-ready setup out of the box.
What's Included with the XP DEUS II WS6-ST Master
- XP DEUS II metal detector with 9-inch FMF search coil and coil cover
- WS6-ST wireless stereo headphones with storage case, 64x64px display, and 4-band equalizer
- S-telescopic rod (58cm folded, extends to 130cm)
- DEUS II Lite charging cable for three components
- Connection clamp
Fast Multi Frequency Performance in Mineralized Ground and Saltwater
The DEUS II runs simultaneous multi-frequency detection or selects from 49 single frequencies between 4 and 45 kHz, letting you adapt to ground conditions without swapping coils. We've run the platform in Arizona caliche and wet Pacific Northwest sand where single-frequency machines struggle with false signals; the FMF mode stabilizes over hot rocks and delivers clean target ID on deep silver in trashy iron. The wireless coil transmits target signals to the headphones without delay, so recovery speed in high-density sites stays fast.
Parks and Iron-Contaminated Homesteads
The 9-inch coil balances coverage and separation for urban parks and old homesteads where iron nails and foil litter the topsoil. Reactivity adjusts across nine levels, letting you slow the detector for depth or speed it up for target separation in nail beds. Multi-notch discrimination with adjustable window width filters ferrous trash while preserving mid-conductors like nickels and gold rings.
Beach and Saltwater Hunting
The coil is waterproof to 20 meters (66 feet) when paired with the optional antenna, and the FMF mode handles wet salt sand and surf without the ground-phase drift that plagues some PI machines on dry sand. We've pulled silver quarters and clad dimes from the wet slope at low tide where the mineralization shifts with every wave cycle; the DEUS II tracks ground balance automatically or lets you grab-balance manually when conditions stabilize.
Gold Prospecting in Hot Soil
Single-frequency operation up to 45 kHz gives sensitivity to small gold in ironstone country. The threshold and audio frequency are adjustable, so you can tune the machine to hear faint whispers on sub-gram nuggets. Hunters working the gold detectors category often cross-shop the DEUS II against dedicated high-frequency platforms; this machine trades the extreme sensitivity of a 60+ kHz specialist for the versatility of a multi-frequency platform that also handles coins and relics.
Wireless Architecture and WS6-ST Headphone Control
- Zero-latency wireless link between coil, remote, and headphones using XP's patented radio protocol across 36 automatic channels.
- WS6-ST headphones carry their own control interface with a 64x64-pixel display, so you adjust settings without reaching for the remote control box.
- Four-band equalizer tailors audio response to your hearing profile; multi-tone modes include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Pitch, Full Tones, and Expert configurations.
- Foldable headphone design and 82-gram weight reduce neck strain on long hunts; 15-hour battery life on a single charge covers a full day in the field.
- Rainproof construction on the WS6-ST headphones and remote; the coil is fully submersible when paired with the optional water resistant antenna.
