While I agree a manufacturer logo doesn't automatically make one detector better than another, I don't fully agree with the video. I've seen instances of one machine hits the target while the another misses it.

Years ago I and others were hunting with a gent named Chris Benson (sadly now passed) using a Minelab Explorer. He hit a deep target and called us over to listen to it. He correctly predicted it would be a token.

My friends Sovereign hit it fine. My Minelab X-terra and my wife's Teknetics T2 were crickets over the 10"+ deep token. We were all using comparably sized coils and what we believed were optimal settings.

The "better" machines just did better. It didn't make mine a "bad" machine, just not as good. Funny thing, the better ones cost more as I recall.
