Minelab Equinox 900 Metal Detector with EQX 11” Double-D Coil and EQX 6” Double-D Coil, Gold

Product Information

Paul Cee – The Equinox 900 is an absolute hoover. It’s just an absolutely brilliant bit of kit. I’ve tested it extensively, both in-land and on the beach and to be honest it’s been a pleasure. There is a lot more versatility on this machine than the 800. A lot of the parameters from the 800 have now been expanded and you can push it more in a lot of areas. The table below provides a side-by-side comparison of both the Minelab Equinox 800 and the 900. Take note of the bolded items under the Equinox 900 column. A bolded item represents the difference from the Equinox 800. Keep in mind, as new updates are released these specifications may also change from time to time and this table will updated as that information is released. Tech Spec

Target Identification (TID) 119 segment notch discrimination: Ferrous: -19 to 0 I Non-ferrous: 1 to 99 Once comfortable, you can adjust the pre-sets or completely design your own combinations and save them for future use.The second new release from Minelab, it offers a mid-price range option for our customers. This detector offers a generation of detectorists an enhanced machine with additional features and added performance. Features

It comes with the new Minelab scorpionarmrest, which was recently announced on the Manticore, the new Flagship coin, and treasure machine. The new arm rest is more comfortable, durable, and is simple to adjust, improving the detectorist's experience. Search coils weren’t changed. They have remained the same. Minelab Equinox 900 is supplied with two search coils 11 and 6 inches. HeadsetYou no longer need to invest in aftermarket, telescopic, lighter stems, as it has it all straight out-of-the-box. Minelab Equinox 900 is a multipurpose and multifrequency ground and underwater metal detector. Due to a special mode and two high operation frequencies, it also perfectly works for gold nuggets metal detecting. It offers not only simultaneous usage of operation frequencies but also selecting one frequency (Multi – IQ). Review Think of the 900 as a supercharged 800. I’ve been asked to reference spinal tap here and not that the Equinox 900 goes to, ‘11’, but some may not know what we’re talking about! This is the perfect metal detector for someone who is new to the hobby and wants an amazing first machine, or for someone who has been using a good detector for a while and is looking for the next level! If you are currently an 800 user, you will love the improvements in the Equinox 900.

It comes with the new Minelab scorpion arm rest, which was recently announced on the Manticore, the new Flagship coin and treasure machine. Beach detecting is the perfect example of how multi-IQ can be so beneficial. Saline environments are difficult for any metal detector due to the salt’s conductivity. This can confuse the machine meaning false signals and loss of depth. Multi IQ analyses on multiple frequencies and uses clever algorithms to sniff out the good targets, even in the worse conditions. The result: You find more, more often. Terrain Modes The Equinox 900 uses multi-IQ technology. Multi-IQ is the name for the patented, proprietary multi-Frequency technology from Minelab. It is the beating heart that made the Equinox 800 the best-selling metal detector in the world. Multi IQ is the benchmark in multi-Frequency technology. Other manufacturers keep on trying to emulate but so far nothing has come close! Under the hood, the Equinox 900 has even better depth and target separation, as well as an improved range of target identification. Its innovative simultaneous multi-frequency (Multi-IQ) technology is among the best in the industry and allows the detector to excel in all terrain and conditions without the need to switch coils or continuously adjust settings.The device has a carbon fiber shaft with a new armrest. This is the only essential improvement, I must say. However, the old one wasn’t that bad; the new shaft is definitely better. Besides, now it is made of carbon fiber which makes it light weighted and more reliable. Adjust an array of essential and advanced detecting functions including Noise Cancel, Ground Balance, Volume Adjust, Threshold Level, Target Tone, Accept / Reject, and Recovery Speed.

The Equinox 900 has an expanded discrimination range of 119 target Id’s (-19 to 99). You can select all metals and hear everything or accurately customise to find only the targets you want to find. The discrimination range is the highest in any Equinox machine to date and allows for a very high degree of customisation and accuracy. Increased Sensitivity Levels In this article, we will be taking a deep look at the Equinox 900 and comparing it to its predecessor, the Equinox 800, to determine if the new Equinox 900 will stand up on its merits and draw in the customers like the 600 and 800 has for many years.

The Equinox 900 uses the same Multi-IQ technology as the 800, but it has been tuned slightly differently. For those who don’t like longreads: Equinox 700 is the same Minelab Equinox 600, and Equinox 900 is Minelab Equinox 800 with some additions. If you’d like to read a detailed review, I recommend reading Equinox 800 review. The thing is that these metal detectors have such insignificant discrepancies (I’d say it’s rather minor) that there is no point in writing a review. The shaft
