Minelab Equinox 700 Multi-IQ profile for this hunt.
Mid-tier Multi-IQ — lighter Equinox with full hunt versatility
The Minelab Equinox 700 bridges the Equinox 600 and 900 with Multi-IQ performance, wireless headphones, and a lighter collapsible shaft. It is a balanced choice for hunters who want more features than the 600 without the 900's top-tier price. Minelab aimed it at intermediate all-around hunters upgrading from entry machines. Parks, beaches, and relic permissions with moderate trash are where the 700 feels most at home.
