Nox 800 - ORX

[Dig2Deep]

Any equinox guys have an orx also? I love my equinox and I’m thinking about an orx with an hf coil to hit sites that I have have spent a lot of time on with the equinox. I feel that I’m pretty good with the nox, but have been advised that the HF coil on the XP is great is heavy iron. I don’t want to leave anything behind to be covered by all the construction going on here. I’d love to hear from other equinox users. The price point of the ORX is attractive vs Deus.

I have an equinox 600 as well as an Orx with 9” hi frequency coil and have used both for relic hunting at iron laden colonial and later home sites in fairly mild soil. I find that they compliment each other well. In open fields I prefer the Nox with 11” coil. At homesites I’d say the Nox with 6” coil or Orx with 9” hf when I want to go high freq. I just added a Teknetics g2+ With stock elliptical coil or nel sharpshooter coil but have yet to use it outside due to snow cover. I hope it adds something to hunting experience. I think you will be impressed with the Orx.

Thanks for the info. I kinda thought they would compliment each other well. I feel like the nox will still be my go to in most situations. I’m thinking that the orx with hf will sniff out things mixed in with heavy iron better than the nox. And..... it doesn’t take much of a reason to justify a new machine!
