You know what’s a BFO metal detector? How about a new product 2018: a machine weighing around 4 kg, powered by 4 thick batteries but having a $200 higher price that an old one? Let me guess… White’s really hit the spot – it’s the very metal detector everyone dreams about. Bingo!
Let’s brush aside at once all the arguments kinda these are rumors. The info about White’s new machine has been taken from the manufacturer’s official information bulletin (White’s has such kind of a periodical, issued once every 2 months). All serious!
It seems like White’s has got everything done, and a new White’s MX Maxxx does already exist. Operating frequency of 12kHz, an old-school BFO technology, weighing 3,600 grams (it’s 3.6 kg!), powered by 4 C batteries (large and heavy ones!), and equipped with an 8-inch concentric coil. The only issue is the price. Should $200 be added, or more?
In your opinion, can White’s troll treasure hunters? It hardly seems like that after the announcement that the enterprise is being sold for $30M… But maybe that’s the whole point here.
Why is there a suspicion that White’s is trolling hobby enthusiasts by using its official information bulletin? What’s the use of these xxx in the name? Is it just because the MAX and MAXX have already been taken? Let it be MAXXX then?

All about White’s is collected here. If treasure hunters ever see a White’s MX Maxxx alive, its place has already been determined – it will be here… ha-ha ))
They are mocking garret do they ? lol Max___ machine have been so deceptives.
In case the first post was too vague for people, the same page in the referenced issue of Discover Magazine has this to say from Ken White….
«Please keep your eyes and ears open for an announcement in the coming months about the newest product from White’s. Until then, happy hunting, and may your days be filled with treasure and good memories this fall.»
Me interesa el de 200
interesting , maybe the XXX are here to replace some letter =) or number.
Sure, the XXX stand for R.I.P. The full name is White’s MX R.I.P.
well at least it not like garret at maxx dead on arrival. the mx sport did better imho. white can still surprise us.
White’s can “surprise” nobody, neither US nor RUS!
What about AT Max – Brent Weaver “forget” to consult
a “specialist” i.e. me! I could tell him something about
“deep buried problems” of all Garrett devices!
Yawn…….wake me up when one of the American companies release a new and innovate flag ship detector.
What’s the garbage about White’s Electronics coming out with a 8 lb. BFO metal detector with 4 C cell batteries and costing $200.00 more. I can’t believe someone would write a article like that trying to slam Whites Electronics.
yes that very weird, a step backward , that cost more , i think that humour .
Well minelab must laugh a lot now =).
white invented the anti-hype buzz , =)
Is this detector for sale? What is the price in 2023?
