From what I read, the stem, MI6 and the backphones minus the WS4 will work along with the other aftermarket headphones that work with deus now. Im keeping my mi6, my stem assembly, and just selling remote, puck and coil. The will buy an extra coil and wsa 2 headphones to have 2 detectors

If the tarsacci could adjust where the arm cuff is located I would be a buyer again. It's only like 9" from the front of the grip to the back of the arm cuff. That ends up mid forearm for me. Make the detector way off balance. Cuff needs to extend back to 12-13 inches . At least for me. That's why I don't swing one.

I've spoken to you and a guy in the repair department in your company back when the racers came out. Bad experiences for me. My coil ears broke off and was told it was my fault and I wasn't covered under warranty even though the racer was a month old. Took several weeks of arguing and posting pics online in forums only to find out everyone was having the same issues. Never in the 40+

Why do in feel like Nokta Makro copy other manufacturers? This new one has alot of similarities of the equinox. The simplex I feel had alot of similarities to the deus, Fast mode (park 2) deep (park 1) pitch mode (field) same shape shaft. The lower rod on the simplex fits in the deus and it's an odd shape. No other manufacturers use that shape for the shaft as far as I know. So I'm g

Hey don't you have a 14" dime buried in you mild soil test garden? You have ran a few detectors over that I'm thinking and most failed to see it. Maybe I'm wrong. I

I've had days like this also. Example, my test garden... I run my detectors over the buried targets often. I live in a community. Some days no matter what I try the equinox will not hit a few of the targets, other days it hit them all. My deus using black x35 coils some days won't hit some of the targets, other days its fine. Unless I use the white coils then the deus always hit the ta

I do feel the waterproofness of the simplex is much better than the equinox. I like that there are some aftermarket shafts for the simplex . These should be usable on the new SMF. If the new machine equals the equinox, then many will jump ship I feel. Simplex for me has better ergonomics.

In Ohio the Deus was/is the best for me at identifying iron , square nails etc. Now in Alabama it seems the same is true. Old coins at depth and square nails at depth sound very similar with many detectors but for me the Deus is better in these and many other situations.
