Excellent testing. Great clarity. Great knowledge. These types of test are the ones that matter. Tests performed by people who remain un-bias, calm, and possessing sound 'peripheral vision'. Just the facts as they present themselves in this particular test scenario. A blessed relief from the OTT types, with loud voices, bug-eyes, who extol or de-cry, using unnecessary and often out of context superlatives. Thank you sir.

DEUS is king of audio no doubt. I am EXTREMELY disappointed that Nokta went this route with the Minelab tones. Original Nokta tones were good. Simplex was pretty squawky. I’m not sure I would like square audio on DEUS 2 either. DEUS full tones and pitch tones is fantastic. You don’t need ID and “ferrocheck” and notches when you have good audio. I hunt without my remote all the time. At this point I’m thinking DEUS 2 is the new king. Legend is too NOX inspired for my taste. Let’s see how it does in dense iron vs NOX and earlier Nokta models. Let’s see how it does agains DEUS 1.

I could see the silver ring maxing out at 60 (assuming the VDI scale is 1-60). I wish they had made the scale 1-99, instead of capping at 60 (but that may be changed in the shipping model)? I also wish it displayed depth in Inches (or centimeters) on the pinpoint screen too. From other videos I see they moved the pinpoint button to the middle, and it does not seem to interfere with the Nokta Pinpointer (don't know about others). Thanks for the review Iffy!

I think anyone who tries this machine will be impressed with it. Its a step up from anything they have put out in the past. Getting it out to us regular detectorists before pulling the trigger was a smart move.

So here's the question, everyone wants to know. With you testing them, side by side, would you buy the Legend or Equinox 800, if you were in the market, for a new detector?

Hey John, allot would have to do with $$. If I had the money for the Equinox I would buy it. The Legend is a great machine (deep and fast) but the places that i hunt i like to have the option of an iron bias adjustable setting. Currently the Legend does not have that. To allot of people that (adjustable iron bias) may not matter.

I was going to go with the nox but not now just for the simple fact that the legend is looks much more rugged i seen plenty of nox coil brackets break if you look wrong at it i ordered the pro pack with the extra coil and still a lot cheaper then the nox and if the legend is build anything like the simplex then it's like a tank

Ive never seen a nox coil bracket break, and my nox is up to 3000 hours still sweet, but you can buy a $5 plastic aftermarket piece if your worried, I have seen many other detectors break their coil tab, I’ve been looking to upgrade to the nox, so viewing many comparison videos, the legend doesn’t Even come close to the nox, the legend lacks depth, and it’s a disappointment,

I haven’t used the 3030 in a long time but for me it was no good due to the speed. Once the Equinox came out i sold the 3030. It really has to do with soil conditions. Some people have incredible depth with the 3030 and Deus. I dont. The Deus 2 seems to be doing ok so far but I have to tweak it a little to get the performance of the Equinox on depth.

That's the real issue. Value. The only thing I'm disappointed in is the lack of Deep mode. Deep mode on the Kruzer and Anfibio is a beast! Especially with the scaling audio, rather than the square audio which gives a lot of information. Seems they got rid of that which is a shame. That's the mode I used 80% of the time on my Kruzer.
