Hi Larry, I would enjoy watching you seed your yard with various coins at different depths and do a comparison with the 800 versus the 900. My thoughts are the 800 is every bit as good as the 900 back to back. Would be fun to see the comparison live action. Thanks for the videos and good luck Treasure hunting my friend!

Hi i just now brought the Equinox 900 and i live in Crescent City ca were we have a lot of Black sand and i can't figure this Black sand out.

Maybe for the way you detect, the numbers don't mean anything, but I've seen blokes call the piece before it comes out of the using that number, and be right most of the time.

I noticed you did a noise cancel, was wondering about your ground balance process? Thanks Steve

Hi mate, I’ve been using the 800 for just over 6 years now and I’m thinking of upgrading to the 900 or the manticore, but the manticore seems way to expensive for virtually the same results, so I’ll probably settle on the 900, Seems everyone keeps saying it’s like the Nox 800 on steroids, I did notice you didn’t explain the auto tracking for a stable detecting session

Hey thanks for your tutorial, its helpful to know how to noise cancel and how to set sensitivity. I do have one question though…..the 900 claims 5-6 meters but you said each little depth symbol represents only 2” depth, that math doesnt add up or am i looking at it the wrongway? Anyways thanks for the video!

They are both great machines. The 900 has found me targets in areas I have hammered with the 800 and the 900 has some great features that the 800 doesn't have. It really boils down to how bad you want to upgrade and your budget. You can call Dan Willis at outlawmetaldetectors.com and tell him I sent you. He can give you the ins and outs.

This is for beginners for the 900. If your buying at this range, it's understood you know the basics and are familiar with detecting. Buy a simplex or a detecor from the Vanquish line. I personally started out with the vanquish 540. It's expensive but she's amazing. I would recommend the 540 for being Multi frequency over the simplex because rhe simplex is single frequency

@SodBustersMetalDetecting

If you rely on the vdi to determine your dig you are missing good targets. It is a reference tool only and should not be trusted. Detect a deep target and as you dig closer to the target, many times you will see the vdi change. Give it a shot and you will see why I say the vdi should not be the determining factor. Happy hunting

When doing a set up vid, slow down and decide what you are doing, with what buttons on the machine. You know this and the rest of us don't. Think of a slow step by step. Think of teaching someone to drive a car, just throw them in the driver's seat with verbal instructions and hope for the best? Slow down and describe what buttons are pressed at what point to achieve what goal. You know this well, we don't, but want to learn, slow down.
