The Garrett AT MAX is Garrett's most powerful all-terrain, single-frequency metal detector, built for coin, jewelry, and relic hunters who move between dry parks, wet creek beds, and saltwater beaches with one machine. Proudly designed and manufactured in the USA at Garrett's Garland, Texas facility, the AT MAX pairs a 13.6 kHz operating frequency with increased transmit power for maximum detection depth, and it is fully submersible to 10 feet (3 meters). This military discount package includes the 8.5" x 11" PROformance DD submersible searchcoil and Garrett's MS-3 Z-Lynk wireless headphones.

What's Included with the Garrett AT MAX

• Garrett AT MAX metal detector with 8.5" x 11" PROformance DD submersible searchcoil
• MS-3 Z-Lynk wireless headphones (up to six times faster than Bluetooth)
• 4 AA batteries
• AT MAX owner's manual and Garrett manufacturer warranty card
• 3-year Garrett manufacturer warranty

Maximum Depth in Any Terrain

The AT MAX's enhanced electronics and increased transmit power push detection depth beyond the other Garrett AT detectors, while eight Sensitivity/Depth adjustments let you dial the machine to site conditions. High-resolution ground balance with 175 points of resolution - automatic or manually adjustable - handles everything from conductive saltwater sand to highly mineralized red dirt. Garrett's exclusive Automatic Ground Balance Window™ simultaneously balances to a range of ground values, smoothing audio in variable ground so faint, deep targets stay audible.

Parks and Lawns

True All Metal Mode delivers the greatest possible depth and sensitivity, while Garrett's exclusive All Metal Iron Audio™ lets you hear discriminated iron - normally silenced - so bottle caps and washers announce themselves before you dig. The 0-99 Digital Target ID scale with large display numbers gives fast, confident calls on clad, silver, and gold jewelry in trashy town sites.

Beach, Creek, and Shallow Water

Fully waterproof to 10 feet, the AT MAX wades creeks, works the surf line, and shrugs off dust, humidity, and rain. The 175-point ground balance tames wet salt sand that makes other single-frequency machines chatter, and the adjustable threshold keeps deep, faint targets audible over the background hum. (For submerged hunting, pair it with Garrett submersible headphones - the MS-3s are for dry-land use.)

Relic Fields and Old Homesteads

The 13.6 kHz frequency is optimized for a wide target range - silver coins, brass relics, and gold - and the backlit display keeps the hunt going at dawn, dusk, or under heavy canopy. Camlocks add stem stability for hard swinging in tall grass and plowed fields.

Built-In Z-Lynk Wireless Freedom

• Integrated Z-Lynk™ circuitry transmits audio to the included MS-3 wireless headphones - up to six times faster than Bluetooth, with auto pairing and no interference from other wireless devices.
• No cords to snag in brush, tall grass, or waders; hear high-fidelity treasure tones only you can hear.
• Backlit LCD with larger display numbers - Digital Target ID and Iron Discrim readouts you can read in any light.
• All controls reachable with a single finger while you search.
• Runs on 4 AA batteries (included) - spares are cheap and available anywhere.
