XP FX-03 Wired Headphones for Deus and ORX Metal Detectors

The XP FX-03 is a wired behind-the-head headphone designed for XP Deus, Deus II, and ORX metal detectors, built with a foldable frame and 30-ohm impedance that matches the audio output of XP's wireless platforms. Deus and ORX owners hunting dense woods or overgrown sites need a headphone that stays anchored during branch contact, and the FX-03's neckband design delivers that security while eliminating the battery management and pairing steps that wireless models require. The inline volume control and compact folded profile make it a field-ready alternative to XP's wireless backphones when weight reduction and simplicity outweigh the convenience of cordless operation.

What's Included with the XP FX-03

• XP FX-03 wired headphones with behind-the-head neckband
• Inline volume control on the cable
• 3.5mm jack connector

Why Deus and ORX Owners Reach for the FX-03

• Branch-resistant neckband stays anchored in dense brush: the behind-the-head design resists snagging on low limbs and undergrowth that pulls over-ear headphones off during wooded hunts.
• Zero battery management: wired connection eliminates the charge cycles and pairing steps that wireless headphones require, so the FX-03 is always ready when you arrive at the site.
• Impedance-matched audio for XP detectors: the 30-ohm speaker impedance aligns with the Deus, Deus II, and XP ORX metal detector, wireless, lightweight & built for relic hunters audio output, delivering clear target tones without distortion or volume loss.
• Compact folded profile for transport: the foldable frame collapses into a small footprint that fits in a coat pocket or small pack compartment without crushing the ear cups.
• Inline volume adjustment without menu navigation: the cable-mounted volume wheel lets you adjust audio level mid-hunt without pausing to open the detector's menu system.

Lightweight Setup for Prospectors and Relic Hunters

Weight Reduction in Extended Hunts

The FX-03 weighs less than XP's wireless backphone models because it omits the battery compartment and wireless transceiver that add bulk to the WS4 and WS6 headphones. Prospectors working steep terrain or relic hunters covering large fields over 4-6 hour sessions reduce neck and shoulder fatigue by eliminating the extra ounces that wireless models carry. The single-sided cable routes down one side of the body and connects to the detector's headphone jack without crossing the chest or interfering with arm swing during coil sweeps.

Secure Fit in Overgrown Sites

The neckband design anchors the headphones at the base of the skull where branch contact is less frequent than the top-of-head position that over-ear models occupy. Detectorists hunting abandoned homesites, Civil War camps, or overgrown parks push through saplings and low branches that catch on protruding headphone frames, and the FX-03's low-profile neckband reduces that interference. The neckband design provides a secure fit across different head sizes.
