    ive heard complaints about gray ghost for equinox not being loud enough. i also understand that the new ones dont have the volume knob on the side anymore like yours did.

    • @DetectorComparisons
      @DetectorComparisons  5 років тому

      The new ones are called the Amphibian II and they are definitely louder than the ones I used in this video. I actually have a pair and I'll be doing some filming in September diving with the Amphibian II headphones. I just use the control on my Equinox 800 to adjust the volume.

      @@DetectorComparisons thanks for the clarification. I just ordered the amphibian 2 's to replace the yellow ones from hungary that were the only option before the grey ghosts. Replacing them because the ear cups are too shallow and crush my ears and make them hurt. The cord is way too short also.

    What type of BCD are you wearing when you detect? I dive in fresh cold water with 7mm wetsuit, and trying to decide between jacket or back inflate for detecting. Currently I use the CTX, but it’s terrible for fine jewelry and have the ATP as my backup. A question I’m sure you’ve been asked and answered already, but CTX, CZ21 or DetectorPro? I know it varies by person and region, so fresh water comparison only.....if you have the time and don’t mind answering? Now off to watch a few more of your videos where I may find my answers already. LOL

    • @DetectorComparisons
      @DetectorComparisons  6 років тому

      I've used all the machines you mentioned and they are all good. Sometimes he's a detectorpro because it's the easiest to move under water but the Minelab and CZ 21 will go deeper in freshwater and saltwater. I just use a regular cpro BC and it works fine for me. You just have to find something comfortable to wear over your wetsuit. I also use a 7 mil most of the time

    • @paulwhite3637
      @paulwhite3637 6 років тому

      DetectorComparisons Thanks for the reply, I’m sure you get a lot of repetitive questions. CTX has been my go to machine for years, but feel the need to switch to a true water machine. I’ve just ordered a Scubapro Knighthawk (wing BCD), so I’ll see how that works for detecting. I figured there would be more room to move my arms around with a wing over a jacket style. As a side note, my CTX was no match against the Deus in England last year on their rolled fields. CTX owned the flat ones, but the rolled ones (IMO) the Deus is king of the crop.

      I'm not a hater. He's a great guy doing a great job making video. I'm just doing some "observational testing" lol. No gold though? Gold is heavier and gets down deeper?
      The CTX 3030 pulled deeper targets as did the Fisher CZ-21 if you go back and watch those field tests. I've watched the videos religously to help me make up my mind in getting another water detector this time I watched for the salt/black sand testing because honestly a land detector can hunt creeks well.
      Another good video. Maybe try testing the old dock site which was loaded with iron and see how it does. Although if it were me I'd be avoiding that spot too unless a cut opened up or a storm came though. Good Luck & HH

    I have tried the Minelab headphones for under water and I also tried the Pelso underwater headphonesand I can barely hear anything under the water. Above the water everything is clear but I barely can hear anything.
    Am I doing something wrong?
    Or is it the headphones?
    Or maybe could it be my equinox?
    Please let me know if I should buy a pair of these headphones that you wore underwater.

      No problem with the sharks, I haven't been bothered in 35 years. I've seen quite a few but they don't want any part of you when you're on the bottom blowing bubbles. Now if you flounder around up on top with a wetsuit that's a different story
