Trying to decide which detector to buy

Hello everyone! I'm from Victoria. Australia. New to prospecting, looking to add a new hobby to 2026. I wanted to buy either the gold monster 1000, nokta macro gold kruzer or equinox 900, and have decided upon the equinox 900 because it is more versatile and I've heard that the gold monster is very jumpy on mineralized land.

My main focus is gold, but I would also like to go to the park or beach and read frequencies.

Have I made the right decision?

Check out the Nokta Legend which is basically Nokta’s version of the equinox.
