Four good reasons for the XP ICON X premium set
The top model of the ICON series. The extended XP ICON X in a premium complete set with the WSA XL ST — no compromises on performance, comfort and noise isolation.
FMF® multi-frequency
Completely wireless
Incl. WSA XL ST premium
IP68 waterproof
FMF — four frequency modes for maximum flexibility
FMF® technology (Fast Multi Frequency) processes several frequencies at the same time. With the XP ICON X you also have three single frequencies available — including the high 28 kHz, which the ICON base model does not offer. This lets you cover the entire target range optimally, from a large silver denarius to a thin gold ring.
4 kHz
Low frequency for high penetration — ideal for large, highly conductive objects such as silver and copper coins and relics.
14 kHz
Medium frequency with a balanced sensitivity and depth profile. The classic all-rounder for fields and meadows.
28 kHz
High frequency for small, highly conductive targets such as thin gold, small jewellery and fine coins.
FMF Multi RECOMMENDED
Simultaneous multi-frequency for maximum sensitivity across the entire target range — the recommended default setting.
Six factory programs for every terrain
The XP ICON X comes with six factory-optimised programs that differentiate the most important search scenarios more finely. In addition, six user memory slots are available — ideal for individual adjustments depending on terrain and target.
