If you’re serious about metal detecting, the Manticore with Multi-IQ+ is the ultimate choice. Its advanced features, powerful MULTI-IQ+ engine, and unrivaled detecting experience make it the best metal detector on the market.

The Multi-IQ+ is the latest generation Simultaneous Multi-Frequency engine from Minelab, building on the success of its predecessor, the original Multi-IQ. With Multi-IQ+, you can detect more targets in the ground thanks to its wider range of operating frequencies and increased power transmission through the coil. The signal processing has also been completely revamped, resulting in enhanced discrimination, greater Target ID resolution, and improved target separation. You also have greater control over discrimination and audio settings to tailor them to your specific detecting conditions. With Multi-IQ+, you can enjoy more power, greater depth, and find more treasures than ever before.
