Minelab xterra, Whites DFX, Notka Makro Simplex. Folks the price don’t mean everything, the question is are you willing to put in the time to learn the machine, experience will pay off I guarantee it.

I use the simplex and the vanquish 540 currently. I got to use a nox for a while recently and the separation is just fantastic. I like the adjustment capabilities as well. Also 50 tone is what I’m interested in. I like the option to switch frequencies. So I think you get a hell of a detector in the nox. I can’t wait to order one when my wife isn’t looking!

You guys are killin' me....I swore off (out loud with my wife around) buying another machine, but man I've been all over the Nox 600. It's inevitable and I might as well just do it.

If your anything like me ...you wont regret the 600... ive had so many machines in the last decade i lost count...the 600 just does it for me....the 6 inch coil routinely coughs up 8" plus coins with solid signals..i dont see much depth difference between the 6 inch and stock coils in my area......its amazing

I had the same question a year ago. Went with the Nox 800 and I love it. I had a personal best year with 26 silvers, 4 large cents, a big gold ring and awesome relics. I got the 6in coil for Christmas and found 2 dimes in an iron patch (one hole had 3 nails in it) Great investment and I couldent be happier with my choice. Best of luck.
