Minelab has officially announced that… the new Minelab Equinox 800 detectors are better than the Minelab X-Terra 705 but worse than the Minelab E-Trac and Minelab CTX 3030. The announcement has been made especially for those who aren’t knowledgeable in the manufacturer’s pricing policy and consider the revolutionary product to be definitely a killer of all machines which were developed earlier. Of course not, the killer will leave its ‘co-brothers’ intact, said Minelab. Here’s an interesting comparative test: the Minelab Equinox 800 vs X-Terra 705 and Minelab CTX 3030. In your opinion, which of these three units sees the deepest? And what VDI will they have on the same targets? Take a look, it’s a quick but really interesting test!
Apparently the Minelab X-Terra 705 is equipped with a Minelab X-TERRA 10?5 DD coil. It is 1 inch less in size than those on the Minelab Equinox 800 and MInelab CTX 3030 (both machines are with the stock 11-inch coils). But that’s not the issue – the X-Terra 705 coil width is 5 inches only, and it gets a decent handicap for the Equinox 800 and CTX 3030.
The Minelab Equinox 800 in multi-frequency mode, the Park search program. Watch out how the Minelab Equinox is identifying low conductive targets (better than the CTX 3030), although silver is seen worse. See the test: the depth values are shown above each machine, the VDI numbers can be seen on the screens.
