The Minelab Equinox series has become one of the most wanted metal detector series in the world. From the detector itself including all its accessories, the Minelab Equinox has proven to be a hot commodity. Let’s get into a few things that I believe makes the Equinox such a big-ticket metal detector.
WHAT MAKES THE EQUINOX SERIES ONE OF THE BEST?
I have said time and time again that the Minelab CTX 3030 is my favorite metal detector. There are many reasons for this, and you can read more about why from my previous article. I was personally present for the ‘Minelab Dealers Meeting’ in 2017 and that was the day that Minelab gave us a sneak peek of the Equinox. As my team sat in the conference room, a Minelab employee leaned over my shoulder and said to me, “This is a detector that we think Treasures in America will really like.” Within seconds, the speaker announced that we will now talk about the Equinox and will be able to see the prototype for ourselves.
As the speaker was explaining the amazing innovative features of the NEW Equinox, it was being passed along to all the dealers so we could examine it firsthand. When it was finally passed to me, I was impressed instantly. I held the Equinox in my hands and immediately noticed the perfect balance and light-weight structure. As I was tuning into its slim and unique appearance, the same employee who had spoken to me previously stated, “We know treasure hunters like yourself will appreciate the compact size and weight of the Equinox Series. We’ve taken the technology and highly admired functions and simplicity of the CTX 3030 and created this detector that is more affordable.” Keep in mind, this detector is not fully comparable with technology and performance as the CTX 3030, but they definitely brought value with a few of the sought-out functions and options of the CTX. As soon as the Equinox hit the market, I jumped at the opportunity to get my name on the list to get one.
WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE MINELAB EQUINOX SERIES?
The Equinox 800 has functions and technology like the CTX 3030 which makes it one of the most powerful metal detectors for only $899.00. When it comes to advanced metal detectors, they range anywhere from $2,000-$8,000. The Equinox 600 has almost all the same functions as the Equinox 800 minus the Gold mode function for $649. If hunting for gold is not your top priority, then the 600 is going to be a great detector for you. Just because the 600 does not have the gold mode, does not mean that it will not find gold targets. It just means it does not have the special preset that uses the perfect frequency for gold. You will still be able to find gold coins, relics, and jewelry. The 800 will find gold nuggets and more due to the frequency change. If you are hoping to find gold, the 800 will be the better choice for you. Now, we can get into functions, options, and accessories.
With innovative NEW simultaneous multi-frequency technology, the Minelab EQUINOX Series redefines all-purpose detecting for the serious enthusiast. Equally adaptable for all target types and ground conditions, just set your detecting location and go!
With the added functionality of Gold Mode, High Frequency 20/40 kHz., Wireless audio accessories, and Advanced settings, the EQUINOX 800 offers extra versatility.
Modes: Park, Field, Beach, & Gold
The Equinox 600 is very similar in functionality and design as the 800. The biggest difference in this detector is that the 600 does NOT offer the “gold mode.” That doesn’t mean that gold cannot be found with this detector, there’s just not a gold setting to search specifically for gold. There are plenty of coils and accessory options to choose from as well.
Modes: Park, Field, & Beach
