I have the latest update in mine. I feel that the additional 4khz has gotten me a few silver dimes that I may have otherwise missed.

When I bought my Equinox, it had version 1.75 on it...I updated to version 2 as soon as I got it which had just come out.
After using it quite a bit with version 2, I updated to version 3.0 and used it some afterwards.
For me the 4 khz did not really impress me... too many bad targets sounded like coins to me.
However, I did find one silver coin while using 4Khz, but I prefer using multifrequency.
I also seemed to notice that silver coins, especially dimes, did not seem to give quite the same sound as they did before updating from version 2.
I continued using it with version 3.0, but later mentioned this to another forum member and asked him if he noticed any difference and he stated that he did.
Shortly after our discussion, we both reverted back to version 2.0 and currently are operating with that version.
Since your detector came with the latest version, I would say keep it as there are no bugs with it... everyone has their own preferences.

Updates can fix more than you realize or they say. I run the latest. It's your machine you should make the decision based on your experiences not some youtuber/expert!

While I had the nox, I rolled back because I was having serious issues with it-- specifically, it was missing some coins my other MLs were grabbing. And at times behaving erratically.

I had updated to version 3.0 and used it for sometime. One thing I noticed there was a difference in sound when hitting on silver coins from version 2. The tone / sharpness just wasn't there. Minelab's 4Khz is a powerhouse at hitting silver but it also makes pull tabs, bottle tops, and other junk sound like good coin targets as well. For me, I prefer version 2. My preference does not indicate there were major issues because there are none. 4Khz works the way it should and it was noted by Minelab that's how their single 4khz mode was designed. As far as audio, I listen intensively by utilizing 50 tones. 50 Tones provide an enormous amount of nuances that all the other tone modes do not have. In version 3, I felt I lost all this audio information. This is why I reverted back to Version 2.

I'm staying with Ver 3 it allows me to run more stable at higher sensitivities
