I've spoke with Dawn over the years on and off , she is indeed a lovely lady , However Dawn does not have experience with any other brand , Dawn started like most of us with ace 250 , from there to A.T pro , A.T max which she bought with her own money , when the Apex dropped Garrett sent her a unit ( on loan ) which had to be returned later , I'd bet money that the vortex is the same deal . I'd suspect a N.D.A as she wasn't allowed show the screen or let us hear the Audio . But to sum up Dawn has only used Garretts from the beginning .

Dawn is indeed a lovely lady but she is a brand loyalist, with a clear bias stemming from her sponsorship and exclusivity to Garrett products. As far as I am aware she has never used any other brand? Her connection with Garrett and the UK Garrett distributor reflects a conflict of interest, as her financial or promotional ties to Garrett discourage impartiality and constructive critique. There is also a certain level of tribalism in defending the brand at all costs, potentially at the expense of honest discussions in the metal-detecting community. By attacking independent testers such as yourself CB, she is prioritizing loyalty to the brand over the broader interests of the community or consumers who are seeking unbiased insights. It's that old crowd mentality that seems to pervade metal detecting these days. And I think the brands stoke all this up. That is why they give away free machines to their loyal promoters/followers. If you are getting a free machine and being made to feel like you are "part of the team" then of course you are not going to highlight any failings in the machine. Just keep doing what you do CB. It keeps the industry honest and lets the rest of us hold these companies to account👍

I’ve been detecting for about 32 years and am currently using the D2. But it is not without its faults. The rc precariously mounted on the stem and constantly falling off causing after market fixes. I bought it as an all terrain machine and the antenna is a pain in the ass. Having said that, it is one of the go to detectors for advanced users that are going after fringe depths or unmasking in extreme trash. For many hobbyists, the Garrett machines is more than adequate for their scope of detecting. I own a Garrett and have had a lot of success with it. Garrett has been a leading innovator over the years and is a very large manufacturer. Don’t count them out. This is all good discussion.

In my opinion now, the biggest metal detector innovation in recent years was not multi frequency or a thousand multi tone options but was when Garrett Metal Detectors made popular the double D coil configuration. This innovation allowed the coil to only be affected by a narrow slice of ground mineralization but yet have maximum detection range into the soil the complete width of the coil, unlike the inverted cone detection of the concentric coil design. This allowed people that mostly hunt in relatively high mineralization ground to fully use their sensitivity and gain settings. Just a bit of history of Garrett’s contribution to recreational metal detecting.

Calabash at some point could you do an update on the current top machines and where they are in terms of updates "needed" in your opinion. Is the Deus II still showing low VDI numbers like a 6 in certain scenarios and does the Manticore false more than the DII? Would you say it's fair that those two machines were released with 95 percent of all the "bugs" resolved to the public. If I recall you might have been one of the first to point out the Equinox 800 had issues with a coin on edge and that's been 5-6 years ago. Your also directly responsible for making my Legend the machine it is today. In fact, I'll go so far to say I won't purchase a machine unless it has been tested and reviewed by you or Iffy because I trust your methods and unbiased opinion.

If your buying and paying full price you need tester that tell the truth about that machine no just been a tester so they get a free metal detector and use once or twice and just lie about its performance that's what happened with apex

My X-Terra Pro beats the Vortex and is only $260 or less. The XTP beach modes must be multi frequency and I use them on land and surf 😊👍

For me if I had a successful YT channel for whatever topic. I would just mind my own business and be happy it's successful. What's to gain by putting another KZbinr's channel down? What are you gaining?

You say that! Lets see what happens when they start slurring you...What is she gaining by slurring me?

@@Bertminator that literally makes NO sense. He compares ALL detectors & doesn’t just show the bad or good on one brand. This is what made his channel successful. I’m pretty sure he was simply replying to a comment made by another metal detecting KZbinr & explaining his point.

Thanks for reviewing these machines. Regardless of what machine a person uses and what our company preference may or may not be it’s important to know strengths and weaknesses.
@calabashdiggeradventures3 күн бұрын
Absolutely! Knowing the good and bad of each machine is vital for making an informed decision.
