The 899 can use the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T xducer which operates at 83kHz/200kHz 2d and 455kHz/800kHz SI...

There were some early reports of issues with the 800kHz frequency when using the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T at 800kHz SI on the 899...

I think this may have been fixed in some of the latest software versions...

I misquoted the xducer model that comes stock with the 899...

It should have read that the 899 comes stock with the XNT 9 SI 180 T compact SI xducer...

But I still think you would be more satisfied with the XHS 9 HDSI 180 T xducer...because of the additional 800kHz SI frequency ...and the fact that the longer piezoes should give better images...
