    I got mine in the post last week. Read through once and am getting a little better sense of how to try and learn my Equinox 600. I think it has a lot of good advice and am going to read it again soon.

    Great book! I have read it through twice, highlighted it and getting ready to start it again. I said I wouldn’t turn on my 800 until I had read it through twice and hopefully had a fairly good understanding on how to use this machine. Now I think I do. You won’t be sorry if you buy this book, it’s really, really good!

    I have read Clive’s book, it is smart and deep. It is not something to breeze through -it has a lot of valuable insights.

    After reading your book I concentrated much more on the sound quality of targets. I very quickly started to understand which sounds to dig. Have found several ancient coins already.

    Now to the book. I was overwhelmed the first couple of weeks trying to learn my Equinox 800. At first I really thought my 800 was defective because it was so, so very chatty since I hunted trashy parks and was where I practiced. I saw on the forums many people having problems learning the Equinox detectors and yet at the same time the more experienced hunters were having good successes with the machines.

    I saw a few posts about Clynick’s book and decided that was the book for me. And it was. It is not another general 101 detecting book with just a few pages devoted to the Equinox detectors. It is all about the 600 and 800. With that being said the 800 users will find the coverage of the 800’s advanced features and settings a bonus.

    Even still there are parts of his book you will have to read several times, at least I did.

    I won’t take the time to go over each chapter, that is why you should buy the book if you are still perplexed or don’t feel comfortable with you 600 or even more so with your 800.

    The book is no substitute for not putting in the hours hunting with your machine, but it does make those hours more productive in terms of learning the machine. Also I have filled in my 800 learning gaps with carefully reading as many posts here and on other MD forums devoted to the 600 and 800. And to a lesser extent some youtube videos made by people using the Equinox.

    And no I am not affiliated with Clynick in any manner. I do own and operate multiple, very technical book review web sites but won’t post those links or names, because that is not the purpose of this post. The purpose of this post is to help newbies and others learn these remarkable detectors.

    HH with your 600 or 800.

    I have this book and it has been very helpful in learning the Nox. I have read it once and refer back to it quite often. The last half of it is a wealth of knowledge.

    …a review…
    …the two nox books are just what the new nox owner needs. I got my nox back in march 2018 and feel only now that I now how to get the most out of the machine. Don’t get me wrong. On the first day you can put it in park 1/2 or field 1/2 or beach or gold and just start hunting. But to truly get the most out of the machine you need to really study how to use all these new features and put them to use for your type of hunting.

    His books were a great help to me. I have read both books twice. Once before really using the nox and the second time after I had about 50 hours on the machine. Learned more on the second reading.

    I have been metal detecting off and occasionally on since 1987. Five years ago I got my AT Pro and for three years thought I really knew quite a bit about metal detecting.

    wrong! The 800 told me I really didn’t know much more about metal detecting than swinging, beeping and digging.

    If it had not been for your first book, I think I would have sold the 800 after 3 months.

    Now I feel very comfortable at swinging the 800 and adjusting it to my different hunt sites.

    With bins I can go to my favorite very trashy park and pull out things others have missed. It is a very heavily hunted park along the river in metro North Atlanta.

    Last week I pulled out a wheat penny shot thru with a bullet and recovered the wheat penny and the bullet. This was about 8″ down in the most trashy part of the park. Of course with the bullet and wheat it did not give a good number but a good tone.

    Looking forward to your new book.

    I got my Nox for my birthday in April and still consider myself a beginner. I really liked The Equinox Series Handbook by Andy Sabisch. His information and strategies are very useful for me.

    But Clive’s “From Beginner to Advanced” book brought the whole thing home for me. I’m a slow reader and have to re-read most things to get full comprehension, but for some reason the concepts just clicked for me. Clive’s explanations of the way the Nox processes signal information and the related TIDs and his graphic representations of the different sounds made it much easier for me to understand. I’ve read that book 3 times now and think I grasp the principles involved. In fact, my detecting skills at local parks and my trip to beach have improved to the point that I’m fairly confident that I know what’s in the ground before I dig it. Of course I still dig them all just to verify, but I’m probably 70-80% accurate.

    Try Clive Clynick ‘s book for the nox series. I have both Andy Sabisch ‘s and Clive Clynick’s book and Clive’s is more detailed about how the 800 works. IMO.

    I found the Equinox at first very daunting so I bought this book and it helped me greatly. Very grateful for the author taking the time for compiling it. Its so much better when you understand what your machine is doing, why its doing it and what it needs from you to give a great result!!!!!!!

    This book made many of the Equinox concepts easier to grasp for me and made it quicker to advance. I have read it several times and still find nuggets of useful information in it. I got all 3 of Clive’s Equinox books and they are all great, but “From Beginner to Advanced” really brought it all home for me. It helped me understand the Equinox and made learniing it easier and my finds better. It is a must read for anyone new to the Equinox.
