Do Grey Ghost Headphones Really Work With The XP Deus II Metal Detector?

I recently picked up the XP Deus II metal detector but I'm not a big fan of the WS6 half headphones that came with it. Are there other headphone options for the XP DEUS 2 that aren't too expensive? The answer is yes but do they really work well enough to make a difference? In this video I have 2 types of Grey Ghost Headphones for the XP Deus II. I have the Platinum and the Original series headphones for the Deus 2. I took both pairs on a full day hunt and compared them side by side in this video. Are they worth the money? I'll let you know in the video and let you listen with your own ears.
If you are looking for Grey Ghost Headphones you can find them from Fort Bedford Metal Detectors www.fortbedfordmetaldetectors.com or give them a call 814-215-1732 and tell them the Mental Metal Channel sent you.

    So just got me Deus 2. I really wanted the WSA XL over the ear headphones but not an option to swap out at time of purchase . I’m not a fan of the WS6 and wearing behind my head. Fort Bedford said I was the only person they knew who wanted to swap out the headphones with the Deus 2 RC. I’m glad I saw this because I’m gonna have to buy these as the current WS6 is just not to my liking with the half or behind the head set up. Thanks Scott

    I'm using a Quest HD headphone with the built in adapter plate. Works fine. I use the XP behind the ear phones when I detect with a sunscreen hat on, but it makes my ears hurt after an hour or so. Keep the old chewed headphones around for Rocky to chew on--might keep him away from the real thing. Keep Digging, Scott!

They’re only a little more $ than the Ghosts and they’re wired with a waterproof connector. I needed something I could use while wading in the surf and the Grey Ghosts wouldn’t work unfortunately. Been loving them so far! 🤙

    I bought the gray ghost platinum headphones several months ago to use with my Deus2, fantastic headphones! But since then, I’ve started using the WS6 as a master remote with a separate shaft. Here’s an odd question for you…can I still take the WS6 puck, and use it on the gray ghost platinum headphones when using the Deus2 RC, now that I’ve set up customize programs on the puck for use when it is a master?

  • @MentalMetal

    @MentalMetal

    Жыл бұрын

    If you are using the puck to power the gray ghosts you will not be able to use it as the Master controller. The RC will be your master and your custom programs will have to be in the remote. Your customized programs will still be in the puck but they are completely different than the remote. You have to treat them differently unless they come out with a new update.

    I have the answer directly from the manufacturer. That the paperwork for the platinum is blue and the paperwork for the standard is green. But when you look inside you will be able to see the headphones inside the muff the speakers on the platinum you can see that they are silver and on the standard you will not be able to see the speaker. And that is how you can tell if you have a platinum headset or a standard headset because when you look inside the muff You will be able to see a silver speaker. Hope this helps others. John
