Yes, it is the start of an interesting topic, and I'll gladly join the discussion. I have a bias of sorts because I personally feel all of the models I will discuss are some of the best on the market today for serious Relic Hunters that can also pull duty for many devoted and diverse-site Coin Hunters. However, I honestly think we need to compare apples to apples before we bring in the peaches for a comparison.Quote

Nokta FORS Relic versus Teknetics T2 Classic .. .. Thought this would be an interesting topic for discussion if anyone cares to participate.
The mid-sized coil for the T2 is 5X10 DD and for the FORS CoRe it is 5½X10 DD. The FORS Relic has a 5½X10 DD as well as a 5½X10 Concentric coil optionQuote

Both these two detectors can use the same size coils (11" & 5" DD's).
Yes, I used to own the T2. I had two or three of them early-on and liked the T2 only with the 5" DD coil for Relic Hunting. When the T2 'Classic' came out I got two of them (an ordering goof on my part), and with the 5" DD coil I like the current T2 'Classic' quite well as a Relic Hunting detector for working in a dense iron littered environment.Quote

Monte used to own/use the T2 but has moved on to the Relic (apparently now preferring it over the T2).
I can't speak for anyone else and their choices. I know the T2 'Classic' is good, I just feel the FORS CoRe and Relic units are better, at least for me and the very challenging sites I hunt and high mineralization I generally deal with. I also Coin Hunt and I liked the T2 less for that without the 5" DD coil, and I also do some Gold Nugget Hunting.Quote

Keith has owned/used both these detectors but (when asked) now says he prefers the T2 Classic.
This answer would be almost all personal opinion of field performance. However, the 'stand-out differences' in the way of features would be the CoRe and Relic offer Tracking GB, have the 'headlight' ,and for the Relic it also has the additional SWIFT and DEEP modes, Tone Break, Iron Audio Volume, and the broader spread in the Non-Ferrous TID range.Quote

Having said all this-----What are the "stand out" differences in performance of these two detectors? (one over the other)
There are some 'blood and guts' differences, but in the end any detector selection boils down to what we happen to prefer in packaging, features, and in-the-field performance. Some will prefer the T2, and I am sure a few responders might not have used a FORS CoRe or FORS Relic enough, or at all, to really compare the performance in-the-field.Quote
D&P-OR
Or is there even actually much difference at all in basic performance of the two?------In other words---I think we all know they are both excellent detectors--that's a given----but--what are the "blood & guts" difference(s) in PERFORMANCE of these two???-----Fire away, ALL opinions welcome!
