Minelab Vanquish 340 VS Nokta Makro Simplex Testing the signals.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 вер 2020
- This week we took the Minelab Vanquish 340 out with the Nokta Makro Simplex and put them up against each other, They both did really well but i think i prefered the Vanquish, maybe because the tones are very much like that of the Minelab Equinox 800 which is my normal metal detector that i use and maybe ive just not had enough time to get used to the Simplex.
As you may have noticed we are now teamed up with LP metal detectors and we have a 10% discount code ( on applicable items) The code is TMDC10 and our link is

overall if you are a beginner and looking for a simple turn on and go detector then i would recommend the Vanquish, The Simplex is a great machine but not as simple as the vanquish to use.

You guys are very entertaining to watch and listen to. I just recently got my son the Vanquish 540 ( his first detector) and am working along side him on getting used to it as I have been using a Equinox 800 for a while myself. I want to have a good working knowledge of the machine before I leave his side and let him build his own confidence with it. You earned a subscriber today and I look forward to more of your content. Thank you both!
Thank you so much for your kind words, we really appreciate your support. Great choice with the vanquish, i have only used the 340 and for there bottom spec machine its 100% awesome.. i also use the equinox 800 as my every day detector so I have to say awesome choice there too ;-)
Do the vanquish and equinox interfere with each other? How close can you have them together?
Not at all matey, I mean if you get too close they will interference but that's the same with all detectors :-)
Sorry I missed the premier, was travelling back from Cornwall. Great video as always guys and great comparision ! 😁👌👌
Hope you had a great time in Cornwall pal
Great episode, for the money, both of these are good machines. Sorry we missed the premiere, we were digging! Have a great weekend!
There both pretty amazing machines to be fair for the 💰 hope you guys had a great dig.
Are you on 2.77 on the simplex chaps ?,love the vid some nice finds,
@@tonylarge7804 i think we was yes Tony but we no longer have the Simplex because we gave it away to one of our subscribers last month :-) loved the machine and the features, the build quality is awesome 👌
Such amazing yet low cost machines. Love them both.
I agree, both great machines, I'm a little bias to the minelab as that's what I'm more familiar with :-) but all in all both great machines
Two more genuinely good guys, you’re unlikely to find. Thoroughly enjoy your videos boys!
Thank you matey we really appreciate your support 👍 🙏 😀
It feels good in the wide grasslands.
I'm glad I was able to collect various things.
Thank you for watching :-)
welldone guys. the vanquish sounds sweet on the tones. Nice comparison with the both machines. jamie and Rachel x ♥ ❤
Thank you guys 😊
Shame you didn’t use the simplex in the right mode... field would have been my go to mode
Half way through i said i changed to field mode and it was 100% better. The only reason I used all metal was because I was told that was a great mode lol how wrong they were.
The Metal Detecting Channel 😂 totally!! Yeah Park 1 if lots of trash or Field, great vid tho 👍
Thanks man :-)
I was waiting for you to switch that Simplex to Field Mode. lol I agree with you, Mike. I would not have dug that watch winder because it sounded horrible. That would have been a great target missed. On the other hand, I would have dug that Vickie Penney where you said you would not. If I hear that high tone squeak in with the iron, I'm gonna dig it. You never know what might be in with that iron. Great video, guys. I really enjoyed it.
yeah when i switched back to field mode it cleaned up the signals 100%, i think im so used to the nox that im struggling to hear half the signals from the simplex.. thanks for watching guys
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel the Simplex takes some getting used to. The tones on the Minelab machines are much better.
It’s a shame the vanquish looks like a 1980’s metal detector😂 come on minelab! Simplex look like a modern machine. If I could take the vanquish and put it into the simplex housing👌🏼
That would be a great combination 👌 I enjoyed the build quality of the simplex
I think both great machines by sounds of peoples own opinions never really tested either I know numbers very similar between nox and vanquish however for me as long as tone repeatable I dig it regardless the number. Great video as always guys. Try catch up on missed vids this weekend.
Yeah both great machine but I think just because im a nox user I hear the tones better on the vanquish so tend to sway that way.
Thank you. This video made me choose the Minelab 340 for my purposes. Next to that, it's priced at 80% of the Simplex in my area.
Awesome matey 👍 glad we was able to help you decide 😀👍 you will love the new machine
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I've been using the 340 for three days now and I am amazed by the interesting items I have found so far as a beginner.
Awesome 👌 I'm glad you are enjoying the hobby :-) great choice of detector too
Modern detectors all seem to do a fairly good job and everybody wants one . Now that we have the technology finding a great place to hunt is the key . Compared to fishing in a mud hole to fishing in a well stocked lake ...😁👍
100% permission is the hardest thing to come across now
A great comparison video. Thank you for sharing, some cool finds there. I have to admit the sound of the vanquish does sound better
Thanks matey.. hope you are well and thanks for watching
Well good hunt guys. Mine lab wins!
i agree too ;-) thanks for watching matey
You have to listen to the tones with the Simplex found me a load of stuff , and when you have mastered it your find rate will go up.
Yeah I guess I'm just so used to the Minelab tones its hard to pick out the good or bad tones on the simplex.. to me its just very noisy 😕 but it does have some awesome features does the simplex like say the vibrate and the torch setting.. thanks for watching 👀
Yep he totally doesn't understand the Simplex at all didn't use it properly at all , and act like the Vanquish beeping clear on everything is a good thing, lol every single piece of Trash rang up loud on Vanquish that's a terrible thing you had no idea what you were digging, I predicted everything the by what the simplex was toning shows what you guys know.
Good comparison video lads some nice finds there 👍👍👊🎧👊
Thanks matey, we enjoyed making it.
Wow some of those targets you wouldn't even notice with the simplex let alone dig.. great video boys. Vanquish would be my choice over the 2.👍
Thanks for watching matey! Yeah there was a bit of a difference between the 2 like
The best machine of all is the one that Beeps Good and Beeps Bad, never really figured out why we need numbers? Listen to the Tones and you will understand low targets from high etc, numbers are pointless in the UK. Good test, but I would always now go to the Minelab over anything made by Nokta/Makro as they have such a high turnover of failed machines and parts it's unreal, one reason why they are so cheap and make you dig a lot more Iron lol. Love the Vanquish and hope to test one out soon
The vanquish is an amazing machine matey, really is
I don't know what equipment are you using to film your videos but you sound quality is really good (stereo quality).
I can hear what is happening on my left and what's going on, on my right.
🤜🤛🏾
Hey thanks for watching, just been catching up on video matey great stuff.. I record on my phone 📱:-) Samsung S10
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Wow! Thanks.
I owned White's, Garrett, Teknetics (still have the T2, great machine)...
With all its whistles and bells at low price, Simplex is the best bang for the buck.
BUT, searching on the field is another matter.
It's a chatterbox: too many signals stressed my ears & brain and slowed my search down.
I used it for 6 months, trying to understand it and saying to myself "everybody say it's a great machine, so don't give up!".
Then I gave up and sold it... and ordered the Vanquish 440.
And you lived happily ever after :-) great choice is the vanquish my friend :-)
Cool video. That watch winder was very nice indeed!! Regards the two machines, I think it's a matter of getting to know the tones. I could clearly hear the iron signal from the Simplex as that's what I'm used to, but couldn't really hear it on the Vanquish, where as you were the other way around. BTW did you re-check that hole for a bit of iron? There must have been something else in there with the coin!? 😁 Laters, Nik.
Agree, I think we find the vanquish better/clear because we both use equinox as our main detectors.. both great machines I guess :-) thanks for watching 👀
Great video comparison I’m sort of glad I got the vanquish now
Ahh great choice to be honest and if I had to choose then I'd take the vanquish over the simplex any day although I do feel like the simplex build quality feels great in the had. Thanks for watching :-)
The Simplex is great for hunting freshwater swimming holes.
Que bonita experiencia muy prácticos al encontrar metales👏👏
Thank you 😀 😊
Sweet tones from the Vanquish.
Yes man, thats one of the reasons I like the vanquish is because of them tones.. thanks for watching.
The noise your simplex makes cracks me up. That second one sounded like a tiny dog yelping at you.🤣🤣🤣😎✌️
hahaha yes it dont half make some noise hahaha thanks for watching matey
I bought the Simplex to call in bocats.
vanquish is the great machine.. nice video sir.. i like vanquish🥰🥰
We love the vanquish:-)
Thanks for the video to totally different sounding machines the red one was better!!😎🐓🐓🇬🇧
Thank you :-) yes the red was the winner for me too hahah
Hello there! after updating 1.6.1, VANQUISH 340 began to work poorly in black earth soils, there were many false signals, and even bad work with iron.the test was conducted in the soils of Russia.
Hey, that sounds not good:-( if you get it sorted please update me :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel when I put the 1.4.4 update back on, the metal detector started working stably.in Russia, we can have several types of soil in one area at once, and the stable operation of the metal detector is highly appreciated.we have the Terra 705 is a legend.the problem with the new update 1.6.1 Vanquish 340 was found not only for me,almost all users in Russia installed Vanquish 340 back 1.4.4. I will wait for the new update with fixed errors.
@@user-cf4jf3vh2k im sure there will be a new update to correct this problem because its not like Minelab to have these problems..
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I also think that the problem will be solved.
poverbank on metal detector with your own hands from Russian upgrade masters.ua-cam.com/video/XjhQ0GciRUo/v-deo.html
The Simplex was effected by the Vanquish being so close, you should have changed the frequency and also used field mode.
We started in all metal and halfway through the video we said we changed to field mode :-) also with there only been like 3 frequency choices the one we chose to use was the quietest out of the lot, probably the xp pinpointer or the garret carrot didnt help as well as the vanquish been so close. Thanks for watching matey :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Not convinced the Simplex was affected by the proximity of the Vanquish 340 unless there was a lot of interference noise - didn't hear any?
What I will say is that the 11" coil gives the Simplex an advantage for depth. I have tried both on the same test bed and found the Simplex to be the better detector on targets deeper than 6". Both are amazing value for money!!
@@toby000000 you know you could be right, we only used the simplex several times over a few months and our normal go to detectors are minelab equinox so it probably was we were just used to the minelab tones.
Great video the Vanquish is a great detector!!!
yes it really is, for the price i love it. Thanks matey for watching
Right on Gents :)
Hey Liz thanks for stopping by :-)
i dont own either on but its obvious that the vanquish interferes with the simplex. you should move the vanquish farther away or turn it off.
Yes, the problem is is that the vanquish you can't change the frequency on this basic model and the simplex has 3 frequency changed to stop interference but i found if I change the simplex then it stops interference with the vanquish but really badly interference with the Garrett pin pointer in both other frequencies hahaha so for recording we just had to made do, thanks you for watching matey :-)
Great video I bought the apex vanquish looks better many thanks pal.
You are welcome Peter 😊
This video really surprised me. I love the Simplex. In other videos its even better than the AT max, and even comes close to the Equinox 800😱
I think a lot of the time its just about how well you get to know the machine, my daily go to us a nox 800 so I feel very comfortable with the vanquish and this is the first nokta makro I've ever used so guess it will take time. Thanks for watching :-)
Not even close to Equinox!
Good Video lads! I use the 440 think it’s good value for the money just need to get used to the tons struggled with loads of iron last time out
What mode do you tend to search in? I always use mine in coin mode and if I hear that low grunt I know its iron.. you will get used to it matey. You over in york? Great name :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I have been using it in Jewellery mode last few times out but will definitely give coin mode a go! Yes mate I am in sunny old York
@@jorvikdetecting2598 love york! So much history, were over in Huddersfield
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel Huddersfield cool not that far away from me then 👍 if you ever do something like a big hunt or organised dig love to tag along get some more tips
Sexy watch winder.
Thanks for the video. After watching this video, it's clear to me that the noise from the Simplex would get boring very quickly.
Thank you, yeah the simplex noise is pretty different from the vanquish
Prefer the Vanquish to the Simplex also, but to be fair you can't compare discrimination mode and all metal mode. Apples and oranges. Try it again with the simplex in field or park 1 mode.
Yeah we soon changed over, I do mention about halfway through the video that we changed to field mode and it really did make the simplex work better. Thanks for watching
Sorry, I stopped watching about half way. Didn't realize you had switched modes.
@@REDGTA its cool matey, yeah we started on all metal because someone told me it was the best mode to use the simplex in but the noise and interference was terrible so we switched to field and immediately the improvement was noticeable. :-)
Very nice !
Thanks matey
Hi lads, a good test on the machines, Like LittleJohn said, I would always go for the Minelab machines, but you need bloody muscles like bloody Popeye to swing them...LOL Up to now I am not impressed with the Apex, chatter mad, unless I have got a dodgy machine, need someone to test their Apex and see if the same before I send it back..
Take care lads
Catch you soon
Tom
I've heard a few say they are a little chattery like. I think the weight of the simplex and vanquish are very similar:-)
My friend how depth locat Vasquez 340 I like it
We have had some real deep targets with the Vanquish:-) pulling coins out at over 10inch
Alô brothers of adventure, i like your videos, i'm thinking bui a vanquish 340 or a simplex..
I want the beter One.! What you recomend..?
Hello Carlos 👋 thank you for watching matey, in my opinion the vanquish is a great machine and works well on the beach too :-)
Some good testing, not much inbetween the 2 machines. Now do a test on a wet beach and see which wins 🤣 Power to the Minelabrador 🌲
We will but i didn't think people was ready for that yet lol
Wher the best?
Vanquish or Nokta macro????
Its difficult because they bot are great machines, the nokta is fully waterproof and has rechargeable batteries but the Minelab is way more clearer on targets and works beautifully on wet sand and beach.. im more familiar with the minelab so I would say vanquish:-)
I bought the 340 and have hardly used my AT pro since
Amazing machines aren't they! I use mainly a nox 800 but if the vanquish range had come out before I bought it then it might have been a different story! Always carry my 340 with me though! Cheers for watching matey 👍
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I am in upstate New York and have never found anybody to metal detect with it's just not popular up here so I get all the finds haha. Love the camaraderie between you guys
@@timmurphy5137 The Vanquish goes deeper than the AT PRO and unmasks coins with iron nearby. If a nail passes under the AT PRO a coin nearby won`t beep.
@@baneverything5580 That's only if you let the metal detector do all the work
The Vanquish is a wicked detector for the money. The Simplex is a Wicked detector for the Money. I could not choice what one So I bought The Simplex then The Vanquish 340 and 540..lol...
What one do you prefer over the 3 like? Its great that the simplex is waterproof for the money but for me the clarity of the tones on the vanquish are a great selling point for me
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel The Vanquish 340/540..I got the 600 I use the most. but found some goodies with all 4 ..I enjoy the hobby a lot..
Hi,
Vanquish 340 or Nokta simplex + ?
Hey matey, thank you for the comment :-) I would say they both have some qualities that's the others don't, the simplex is rechargeable and waterproof but is not great on beach where as the vanquish will 100% work perfect on beach and land but takes 4 AA battery's and is not waterproof.
I'm a bit of a minelab guy so I would always go for the minelab but they are both good machines :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I bought two sets of high quality/capacity NiMH batteries for my 340. Take the extra ones with you. If you`re off grid take a USB powered charger and a folding solar panel and some alkaline backups for emergencies.
I wouldnt have dug any of those using the simplex and it proved right. Digging that junk. All metal is crap as well, field 1 there and you would have been flying
Yeah I agree its just a matter of getting used to the machine and knowing what settings to use, we used all metal because someone told us to use it but we did switch back to field as it was so much better. Thanks for watching matey 👍
It's defo a detector to listen to rather than check those vdi's ..great vids keep them coming kid
WOW Michael, beautiful hillside. Congrats on them Vicki's. I like the vanquish better and I have not even tried it yet. LOL...your 3.1.3 video got way more views them mine...lol...
Didn't it just lol I had to do it when I noticed the update:-) hahsha thanks for watching Mike
Simplex cannot compete with the Vanquish, certainly not on the wet beach...
i agree, Minelab rules when it comes to wet sand for sure!
Your vanquish 340 sound way more responsive than mine
Really? Have you done any updates? We have a video on our channel showing how to do the update :-)
I just don't see if you ground balance the simplex
Sorry yeah I'm glad I mentioned that I had as i forgot to show me doing it.. i think why I'm struggling with the simplex is because its new to me and I'm so used to the tones of the minelabs. Thanks for watching and your support 🙏
It's fine it's just a deferent kind of animal that why . Me I also have a minelad nox and a simplex for back up if you got it updated to ver 2.77 park 1 will much the nox in depth but the simplex a struggles just a little on salt water.
@@vellabellsabanto9767 you must manually ground balance to zero in Salt water
@@vellabellsabanto9767 to be honest I've not looked to see if my simplex is updated :-) I better have a look hahaha. Have you updated your nox800? I've a video on my channel showing the 3.0 update:-)
@@ifindmetal I'm yet to take it to the beach but being a Nox user I'm trying to stay positive 🙃, im sure it will do well. Seen plenty of other channels use it on wet sands.
All tones on the vanquish are too similar to fine tune your ear to. Also dug a lot of iron with it. Personally I am an ORX user/lover, had it for nearly a year, but also have a simplex as back up... It's not built greatly but certainly better build than the vanquish - that USB port in the battery compartment is ridiculous!
100% build quality is better on the simplex but for the price I just can't see a better entry level machine on the market, I know a few people who use the ORX and its a great machine but still priced around the equinox sort of price range
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel yep I had an equinox as well and couldn't get to grips with it at all, sold it within a few months and got the ORX for around £500 and haven't looked back since, I guess I'm just not a minelab fan 😂
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel however I did prefer the v540 to the nox!
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel the other plus point to the Simplex is that you can connect the pulse dive pointer to the headphones... You can't do this on anything else at this price point, next one up would be the ORX with the MI-6 which is an unbeatable combo in my opinion, or the Garrett Z Link and AT pro pointer but that's an extra cost on top of whatever machine you have
Nokta not as good depth,and nokta love coke,I’ve got the 340,it’s pisses all over the nokta,nokta aren’t stable on target ID
Thanks for watching matey 👍 😀 I really like the vanquish:-)
Sorry Mike football ⚽️ with boys
Its cool man :-)
vanquish much better sounds then the simplex
I agree Barry. The simplex just didn't seem to get on very well with me lol
Fake the digs then what else is fake
Eye see we are not sure what you mean 🤔 but we 100% don't fake any finds, the thing you don't see is that we start detecting at 6am and sometimes don't finish till 6pm after digging hundreds of holes each and still never find nothing great, but some of our permission just keep on producing awesome finds :-)
We have invited many people to.come dig with us and some of them people have found amazing finds even gold coins.
Thank you for watching our suff matey we really appreciate it 😀👍😊🙏
I found three gold rings one day in under 35 minutes. Glad I didn`t film it.
Minelab deffo seems to be giving a clearer one!
Agree matey, just caugh up with your latest podcast 👍 😀 😉 👌 awesome work
Well good hunt guys. Mine lab wins!
I think so too lol :-)
Minelab wins ? Ha ha you ran the Sensativity low on Simplex most of time , and all those Unclear tones were Trash the simplex was telling you they were the Vanquish rings hard on everything that's extremely stupid you dug tons of Trash because it does that , Vanquish failed here
@@ifindmetal to be fair it did take me a while to get used to the minelab tones as my detector before was a whites mx sport. Im sure 90% of it is just because im not familiar with the nokta tones.. ill keep at it :-)
@@TheMetalDetectingChannel I'm over here in the States so I Don't know what UK coins ring up but I literally predicted every thing else you dug off what Simplex was saying, has it occured to you that the Vanquish ringing up the same clear tone for everything is not very productive unless you like to dig all trash then it's great
