Amplifier for a Garrett AT Gold?????

HI needing help.

Does anybody Know if you can fit a Amplifier to the AT Gold detector or not. I see there is a cable on the market to convert the original 2 pin plug over to a jack type(used on a set of headphones).

So if i was to buy a Amplifier and connect a speaker to it would would it have the effect as a Rooster Booster???????

Just thinking out aloud.

Thanks regards

Darryn

Darryn,
Not familiar with the detector you mentioned however any headset amplifier should be able to do the job and should do the same job as a rooster booster. Something like this kit from Jaycar should do http://www.jaycar.com.au/productView.asp?ID=KG9032&form=CAT2&SUBCATID=965#11

I have one of these headphone amps - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/200908741878

I bought a tobacco tin at a secondhand shop that I fit it to. Drives a small external speaker nicely.

I swapped the amp chip out for a higher quality one though as I mostly use my amp to listen to music.

Thankyou both very much with your information.

Ben do you have a Garrett AT Gold detector? If so what do you think of it. I have only just got mine and have used it just twice but cant wait to get out and try it again.

Hi Darryn,

Nope, I have a Teknetics T2. I see plenty of pics put up of gold found with AT Gold though. Either they have the numbers on the ground or Garret actually hit a solution to hotrocks!
