Hmmmmm the 705 !
To me Its a bit of a middle of the road machine.Can`t say I loved it,but at the same time ,can`t say I didn`t like it.
I found it was one of those detectors that preferred wet to moist soil and if it didn`t get it,it was a wash out.
I used to have one while using the Deus as well.
One day I took the 705 to two fields that had just a few days earlier been ploughed and rolled. I paced up n down for hours finding next to nothing.
The next day I decided to change detectors and brought the Deus out to play instead.Same soil ,same dry weather conditions , same search methods.
It was like a Magic wand had been produced on to those same two fields. I was finding stuff left right and centre . The Deus kicked the 705`s ass big time.
I think I E bay`d the 705 soon after and I don`t think I`ll ever want another one .
But ! thats just my personal opinion of the 705 . Others could probably tell a different story.. This is just mine .
