    I am an Equinox 800 user and have tried the Simplex. Good machine, but The Vanquish 540 TID and tones are the same as the 800. So sold the Simplex and will buy the 540. Nothing wrong with the Simplex, just a personal preference.

    Very fair and balanced review. Personally I would always take the Vanquish but like you I am also a Nox user. The Multi-IQ does it for me. I prefer a quieter machine. I only want to hear a signal when I go over a target. I have previously owned the Racer and Impact and they were good on the beach but not quite up to Nox standards. I never go in the water so again the lack of waterproofing on the Vanquish is not an issue. I also prefer the APTX low latency bluetooth for headphones rather than being tied into a manufacturer's own phones as with the Simplex. Still...both great machines for the money.

    Thanks for the head to head beach review. My wife has ordered a Vanquish for me, waiting for it to come in, so looking forward to more videos. I am just up the Bay on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, and the Simplex was going to be my other choice. I just think that, except for deeper water, the Vanquish is going to be the top. I don't detect in the water so it was a no brainer. I am going to watch your channel to pick up beach hunting tips. Thanks again!

    Thank you! I enjoyed the video comparing the two detectors. As a beach hunter I’m leaning toward the Vanquish as I prefer multiple tones for the target I.D. I hope the shaft is replaceable with an aftermarket rod.
    Best of luck! Liked and Subscribed!

    • @stevewaters2974
      @stevewaters2974 3 роки тому

      The Simplex has multiple tones on the beach also... all you need to do with the Simplex is ground balance in Beach mode and then switch over to park one which is what I do and it's fantastic in three tone mode. I actually don't like beach mode tones on the Simplex which is why I switch over.

    Hi comrade!
    I live in Ukraine. Now there is a war. I moved from Donbass occupied by Russia.
    For several years now I have been fond of searching with a metal detector.
    And even in war I try not to betray my hobby.
    I like your videos. They are diverse and reliable.
    I like your approach to checking the technical characteristics of metal detectors.
    I’ve already subscribed to your channel. I am happy to see how you test each device and give a professional assessment to metal detectors.
    Do this further. I wish you success. Waiting for new exciting videos.

    6:57 pretty much every machine does that falsing??? You are joking right? Lmfao!!! Not even the go find 60 do it. You should show us how the simplex makes a signal sound in every hole you dig When there is no target burried. And not only the simplex does that anomali, the multy cruser and the anfibio does that too... let's be honest here man!!! Lol
