I Chose The Nokta Makro Anfibio Multi: Heres Why & First Hunt
ฝัง

- So I just invested in a Nokta Macro Anfibio Multi. At the time of shooting this video in May of 2019, there are a ton of great options on the market and this video will go over why I chose this detector and it will show you my first hunt with it.
Reason 1: Is because of the area that I hunt in and around New York City requires extra depth. Ive dug 3 colonial coins, about 10 large cents and many relics from past eras and 90% of those signals were greater than 10 inches.
Reason 2: Is because New York is Pull Tab and BOTTLE CAP land. Im telling you if you plant a garden in New York, youre gonna grow a few tomatoes that look like pull tabs and carrots that look like bottle tops. Our soil is RICH with trash. Its almost like someone had a party and started throwing up these objects in the air. It is really difficult detecting around these objects so I needed a detector with a fast recovery speed. The Hunter GT just did a segment on this yesterday. Recovery speed is how quickly your detector can move from signal A to signal B (as long as the objects are not within the same coil length). I have a link to Hunter’s video here and you should all check it out. It is must view material for serious detectorists.

Hi, my name is Merrill Kazanjian. New York City is an amazing place to go metal detecting. We have lots of parks, colonial history and great beaches for beach detecting. I have gone to all five boroughs of New York City To Metal Detect and beyond. I also currently own 16 metal detectors. I want to have the best and I want to help you choose the best as well. Below I will showcase some of the playlists on this channel:

I am a treasure hunter. So in addition to metal detecting, I go mudlarking at sites such as Dead Horse Bay. Think of mudlarking as metal detecting without a metal detector.

If I may....when you dig your target cut a plug but don’t go all the way around...leave a hinge so when you are done you can just close the flap. Then step around the edges of the plug so air doesn’t get in there and dry out the grass thus killing it and leaving dead patches in the park. Also take a small towel or cloth and when you dig out the dirt in your hole you can place the dirt on it and then before you close the flap you can pour the dirt back in and thus not leaving a dirty mess and also it fills the hole better. Remember like the Stealth Diggers... leave no trace
I will try that! thank you!
Looking dialogs to your bond with the Nokta, keep us updated, this is a learning experience for all of us. Thanks for the great videos and as always Be Safe and HH..
I promise I will give my most honest appraisal. I am excited to learn this. Thank you for the kind words!!!
A honest and to the point review.... You'll get it 👍 keep us posted...Good luck !!
I appreciate that! Heading out today!
Great video! Nice shout out to TheHunterGT! I admire your quest to understand how your detector works and why!
Thank you Brenda! Its a pursuit of joy. The practice of detecting has been such a great outlet for me that the curiosity and questions come naturally. I appreciate your comment!
and then he got a Minelab Equinox 600 and said its the best thing ever...
I ordered the Nokta Makro Simplex WHP yesterday....can't wait to get it!!!!!🙏🙏💍💍😇😇 Thanks for posting and I love The Hunter GT ❤️ I got my pinpointer through him!!! 😉
Oh yeah, the Anfibio! Fantastic machine and Darnell Hello World finds amazing things using his Anfibio or Simplex. I bought the Nokta Makro Simplex and it is arriving today!! Super excited! Enjoy your new machine and finds!
Great video. I hated my Anfibio when I switched.. took some settings from England History, The Grim Bleeper and The Searcher and now it is a monster ! Everything about it is perfect. Super deep as well...
agree on your opinion got one anfibio my self very powerful tool and at almost every hunt i learn a ton of new stuff and variety of setting you can change is huge and that make it great cause you can ajdust your detector to the exact spot you searching on love my anfibio 👍😀👍
Very informative Merrill. Enjoy the journey of your learning curve, It will pay off in the long run.
Thank you Brian!
Nice pick up👍practice, practice, oh yeah & more practice. Looking forward to seeing you getting dialed in with the Anphibeo, GL & HH😊✌
Thank you Ozzy Alchemist! Practicing today as soon as I get out of work!
I am one with my anfibio. It goes deep and bangs the finds out. 2tone and deep on 92 gain and iron volume on 3 are my favorit settings Greetings from Hollander.
I truly appreciate the suggestions. I will try those exact settings. I actually never adjusted the iron volume.
Good choice of detector. I started on the Minelab Safari and it served me well. You won’t regret the antibiotic.....it’s brill. Good luck on your future hunts. 👍👍👍👍
Thank you. Excellent video! The anfibio will be my next machine. Waiting for it...!!!
I have a Minelab Explorer SE and I feel the same I love it, I almost bought a new Minelab too but the Simplex won me over!!!
I like the features of the Minelab detectors, but I'm not sure I could get over the weird sounds they make. But I'll bet that Zamfir has a Minelab, if he's into metal detecting! JS 😉
Larry Pendergraft
Oh man how much i do love the sound of all explorers 😀😀
At first they get on me nerves but once i used it for a couple of years i cannot get used too any other detectors on the market 😅😅
@@masitaatisam3679 Nothing else sounds like a Minelab, that's for sure!
I like my AT pro,but good luck with your new detector.Thanks for your videos
Thank YOU Richard!
Merrill....I appreciate that shout out my friend! A great decision with that Anfibio. You hit on some great reasoning and points in this video. It is not for beginners and takes a sit-down learning session just to get used to it. Nobody could have faulted you for sticking Minelab and going for an E800, but I am happy to see you taking a leap on a new brand. Seems like you are taking a quick understanding of it. I am excited to see how you mesh further with it in your upcoming videos and what the final grade will be.
Interesting choice , with any detector cant stress enough to learn the correct swing speed and coverage speed especially on the deeper stuff , will be interesting to see how you feel about it after you use it awhile.
Im going tomorrow.....and UNTIL MY ARM FALLS OFF!!!!! LOL
Best of luck! Hope you find the pot O gold!
Will pick the 4 leaf clovers just in case! LOL
As far as it showing 5" on a surface find. You need to remember, the pinpoint deptha are based on "coin sized" objects. That wire was much bigger, thus it read deeper. And finally, these machines with visual ID are awesome, to give you an IDEA ofnwhat you are digging, but not a single one from any manufacturer, is 100% accurate. Its the nature of the business. Lots of different metals give similar reactions to detectors, fooling them. Gold will id as aluminim, aluminum will id as gold, flat iron fools all detectors, bent nails fool all detectors. You just need more time on it Charles Garrett said you need to spend at least 100 hours on any machine to really know it, and he was RIGHT. I have about 250 hours on my Equinox 800, and i know it well, i can predict majy of my targets by the way it reacts, but it still sometimes fools me. So hang in there, and dont rely too much on the screen. Go by the tone, the size AND the id all in conjuction.
I'm leaning toward a Nokta. I've read where the Equinox is fantastic, but I've also read where people have had a brand new Equinox leak water into the housings in no more than 6" of water. That's straight up unacceptable.
I'm shopping around for a new machine, and there seem to be niggling mechanical problems with the Equinox series, such as crappy camlocks on the shaft that wont stay locked, broken cuffs, and flimsy coil mounting ears that snap off. It's concerning when I see aftermarket parts to reinforce the coil's mounts, I've never had one to break on another machine, nor have I even heard of that happening. The electronics seem great, but the other bits, maybe not so much.
@@larrypendergraft2696 - Yeah, in these tough times, I have one shot to buy the "right" detector. I've been using the same machine since the 80's - just a cheap freshwater beach machine, so I'm a bit overdue for an upgrade. Lol. I was recently watching a video on the insane sweep recovery speed of the Nokta Simplex. Wow, I'm not sure if the Anfibio can recover as fast as the Simplex, even though the Anfibio has tons more features, but for an entry level machine, it was incredible!
You can watch here---
th-cam.com/video/j2KzK2dIP28/w-d-xo.html
@@PureBlood42 - based on the videos I've seen, the Anfibio recovery time looks the same as the Simplex+, which is to say, insanely fast.
@@larrypendergraft2696 - I'm really leaning toward the Anfibio!
@@PureBlood42- I'm leaning that way myself, but wish they'd come out with that true simultaneous multi-frequency machine they are supposed to be developing.
Give it more than one try before giving it a grade. When I first got my Deus I didn’t like it. Now I love it
I've had the Anfibio almost two months, and still trying to understand the target ID's. Obviously the coin signals are more evident, but unsure of where gold and silver may fall. Pull tabs seem to range from 32 and up. A marked 14K ring rang up at 29. Does pinpoint really nice. I use my AT Max when looking for gold signals. Both great machines and do different things for me.
I feel your pain! Check out The Hunter GT’s tutorial. There is a way to normalize the target ID’s! Apparently you have to push the plus and minus buttons at the same time to get to this! It is COMPLEX!!!!!
@@MetalDetectingNYC- it's simple to change it to make target IDs normalize across all three frequencies when you know what to do, but it's non-obvious. There are a few things like that, which probably only need doing once, such as having depths display in inches or (better, if you're comfy with metric) centimeters, since you get ~2.5x better depth resolution.
9" concentric coil best for trashy ground.
Using the Gain up to 89 is using a fast recovery speed. 90 and over Gain, is for using slow recovery speed , & best used only in Clean soil conditions .
Choppy or quickly fluctuating target response numbers are most of the time trash. Dig only target numbers that lock on pretty much without jumping about erratically.
Target ID-ing is just for a " quick " guide and no more . Rely more on the Target Sounds as to if its a digger or not .Your EARS are KING . People get too hung up on trying to rely on Number recognition. Do lots of tests on different objects & coins on a test bed surface to give you an Idea as to the sounds and of course you can see what number each is coming in at but, concentrate more on the SOUNDS each target gives you .
Hope this might help some 👍
The Anfibio is a Trash Magnet. Powerfull & Super sensitive to every bit of non ferrous metal both good and bad.! . Harder to work in trash than i expected with 11 inch stock coil.. Good Iron rejection / iron ID though..
I need a concentric coil to tame it!. I am field testing an Anfibio Multi at the present time. Once i get 30 hours use on it i will be doing a 30 hour honest review of what i think of the machine. Crown caps, it loves them with the 11 inch coil.. Overalll a nice Detector a sophisticated machine....Take some serious hours "flying time" to master it..
I wholeheartedly agree with every word
Try narrower 11x7" or 9.5x5" DD coils for trash. Great performance. Worlds apart. 11" pulling too much info in on circuitry very heavy iron nails etc. Change coils ( Horses for course). Even the Continuous multi IQ E800 has coil options. Hope this helps you.
I got the nokta anfibio its a great detector hates emi little recommendation i bought a mars coil for my v3i and it works great around emi u can Jack the sensitivity up with no problem
How many inch u buy ur mars coil for ur anfibio ?
@@baihaqial-faqir898 Mars Tiger Coil for Nokta Impact/Anfibio. Great on Impact. 1" extra depth over stock coil.
Everything is fine. What is the best frequency to detect jewelry? Like rings, wedding rings, earrings with the multi Amphibian. thanks!
Keep it at 14. But the real small stuff is better suited for the highest frequency
Very good video it set my mind on my next machine thanks for sharing
If using 3 tone... remember that if gain is below 90 you get super fast recovery but less depth.... 90 and above a little slower recovery speed but more depth 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Very very helpful!!!!! Thank you!!!!
100% Sid, using the programs you wrote in the searcher mag and Grimms 99 settings and flying.

Excellent vid. My reaction/review would be exactly like yours. I'm in the market for a new detector and am concerned about the learning curve on some of these new machines. I'm strongly leaning towards the Notka Impact after being a White's swinger for the past 40 years. I'd love to see you review the Impact if you get the chance. HH & GL! PS... The new Nokta Simplex seems to be a REAL DEEP-SEEKER! The vids I've seen have been very impressive especially for $300!!
12 INCH Deep Coins with the Simplex are no problem for it in the right ground,
Great detector,but that video you watched just doesnt cutnit for realword results. The Nokta punches deep but only atn full sensitivity, and its chattery as hell. No way would you detect all day with that noise all the time to get that extra bit of depth then the nox,which from those tests wasn't on all targets. I've seen other videos at the beavh where the Nokta isn't was deep as the Nox. The nox is a way superior machine in my opinion.
Rock On nice job on this video. Looking good
For pinpointing its easier to pull back watch Darrell hello world he'll show u how to use the anfibio
Thanks for the info! I've never detected before but I'm super interested. I'm curious to see where this detector takes you.
I have 2 words of advice.....DO IT! I made a video to push anybody who is on the fence: th-cam.com/video/rVZnkY7G4Qc/w-d-xo.html Dont be shy if you have any questions!
What is the difference between this and the Impact besides the Anfibio being waterproof?
I hear good things about this machine. Given possible depth advantage over Equinox, I still don't like how it sounds.
LOL! I was used to how my Minelab chirped at me. What is funny is that each mode has a unique set of sounds.
That sound was in Gen mode. Other modes sound different.
@@ausmith77 That is the problem with the nox too. I prefer the same target to sound the same in every mode. I really only use 2-3 modes
He really should have started out in 3 tone w/stock settings and branched out from there. Gen mode really works nice for small items that whisper like gold nuggets or very tiny artifacts.
Well considered and reasoned post just brought one same thoughts as u
Let me know what you think of the anfibio .. I have nox 800 for my primary detector... we all like running more than one or at least I do ....was looking at this anfibio....just as a second option... from the switch from v3i to nox I get way more speed depth and such...looking hard at anfibio for cornfields.
Looks like a great Detector to me👍🏼 but in time it will become a better one. I have one question, does that screen on your Detector light up? I have a Garrett AT Pro and it does not😕 stinks because I hunt at night a lot.
Yes it does.
I will say congrats on your decision. I will say the Equinox 800 is VERY customizable, and is much different than your Safari. And "depth comparison videos" are pretty useless UNLESS you see the same exact machines set up as equal as possible, being used in tons of different settings and soil types, and the same one always is deeper than the other one. One video or even 2 or 3 really dont prove anything. Many times, the one that is supposedly deeper just happens to be the one the person making the video is familiar with. Anyway, I use and own many different detectors and different brands, I have a Nokta Fors Relic, and its an awesome detector. Im sure the Anfibio is as well. Nice video!
The nox he was using didn't have the latest update
Can you make a video showing maximum depth with multi anfibio 2m deep size of object 40x40 cm
What best additional coil for anfibio multi? Is the product of Magic 13" coil better than 13" coil from Nokta Makro?
My friend.Hi from Island of love and old treasures.So I am in hobby almost 2 years and I found many many coins and others with my minelab safari.
Pls let me know this...I want to buy another machine and I am between Nokta impact or the Anfivio....Pls let me know your opinion.By the way Great work and in many many things we are agree.Best regards dear friend.
The Nokta Makro Anfibio is the metal detecting equivalent of DRIVING A STICK SHIFT CAR! Many people like that. 3 months later, I still prefer my Safari. That says a lot. In fairness, I have found extremely deep targets on it, but it is NOT user friendly. It is also highly mediocre in salt water compared to my Beach Hunter 300.
@@MetalDetectingNYC Many thanks dear friend.I forget to say that my Island is Cyprus.
So you say to stay with my Safari?
@@gimbohouse In my opinion, the Nokta Makro is not as good as the Minelab Safari. Having that said, I have 4 years detecting with the Safari and 3 months with the Makro so its really not a fair competition. The Nokta picks up EVERYTHING and the target ID is so similar for Bottle Caps (so many of those in NYC) than it is for coins. Its ability to pick up everything is a credit to Nokta but my Safari was perfectly calibrated and SO EASY to use. If I was to do it over, I would try the Equinox.
Hello. Nice vidio how works this machine in the River looking noggets
Have you checked out ,,Darnell Hello World Metal Detecting Williams, channel? He has same great insight on Anfibio settings.
The pinpoint depth is not in inches
I did not watch whole video, hate watching someone talk into a camera.
Ti much talking hardly any detecting
