My Equinox 600 vs. my Explorer SE

Well-known member
The ground here is pretty dry so I was pretty picky as to where I was hunting. The 1898 house I hunted with the 600 wasn't too bad. I recovered a few things but nothing to really brag about with the 600 there. I dusted off the SE and took it to the house. My settings on it were sensitivity 25 manual and ferrous tones. I really prefer the tones of the Explorer over the Equinox. Long story made short...All I recovered from the yard was a clad quarter and a couple of chunks of aluminum. Other than the tones,it looks like the Equinox is the real deal! HH! Ted
 
It is definitely different tones but when it hits you know it. Good luck with your Equinox.

Ted,

Your experience mirrors mine; I was a long-time SE Pro user, and am swinging an Equinox (and occasionally the CTX 3030) now. There's now no doubt in my mind that the Equinox "hangs," very favorably, with FBS machines, in terms of capability...

Enjoy!

Steve
 
Thanks guys! I'm not making the great finds in public parks like some of you. We really need some rain before I go back out again!
 
I swung an SE for a couple years and had a couple II as well. I too prefer the 'Nox. It is an evolved unit over the Explorers. Never the less they are very good machines in their own right and have some loyal users.

I had a Etrac made some real nice finds with it but I’ve been re hunting those spots and I’m finding a lot of silver so it’s definitely now my only machine I use .
Even sold my Deus!
But kept the Deus pin pointer ...

I think the E-trac has its faults (slow recovery) and crappy screen. However if it was lighter, faster recovery, and better screen it would be hard to beat. I also have the EQ800 and F75LTD2
