i read alot of posts on different sites and hear people swear up and down how great the exp.xs is how it will take ther into the 25th. century. i have also noted how some of the same people swear up and down about the DFX.WHATS WITH THAT?
 
I dont know whats up with that <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":)"> you see some explorer users jumping ship? <IMG SRC="/forums/images/smile.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":)">
 
Just went to the whites site to have a look at what a DFX is. Doesnt look too special , runs on 2 frequencies 3kHz and 15 either or both at the same time, and doesnt look to ergonomic. It looks like that swinging that all day compared to an Explorer I think id know who wouldnt get a sore arm. Minelab are the BEST and the facts speak for it.
 
As time goes on, somewhere, the experienced Explorer XS user will get hold of the DFX and do a fair comparison.
The DFX, by all accounts so far,might actually make a good "backup detector", though I would rather another Explorer XS for that purpose.
And let me say before I go on that if the DFX does PERFORM and DETECT better than the Explorer XS, I will get a DFX.
So far, the only comment that I have seen that was made about comparison of the two detectors, in response to my post on another forum, is that:
"at least the DFX does not fall apart".
Yeah well, We could always use a broomstick to pretend we are detecting, 'cause a broomstick won't fall apart either.
Believe me when I tell you that it seemed like it was a response from a "little boy" with his hand on a "little toy" that claimed to have USED the Explorer XS last year and felt it was made to flimsy for his liking.
So at that point, the Explorer lost his favour.
Right now it seems that the DFX is probably his "flavour of the month". It has basically just been released after months of speculation.
The Explorer XS,has really got me hooked. I am very happy with it.
It is a really different detector that needs some one to actually duplicate it and better it before we find an equivalent or better.ThE Explorer is going to be a tough act to follow.
I like to keep abreast with what other detecorists find and it is alwys interesting to see what goes on the other brand forums.
A lot of people have been waiting for the "DFX" to arrive. They actually put off buying anything else until they tried the DFX out.
It happens with lots of things.
I believe it even happend with Explorer XS.

Theres no other detector to beat the Explorer. Minelab will improve on it like they did with the Soverign and the facts will speak for themselfs. They will refine it and make it even better and itll show up all the others. Let time speak and the Explorer will prove to be the winner, actually itll be Minelab all the time, the leaders in metal detecting technology.
 
The question is when will they make improvements?? Any idea anyone?
