Minelab Equinox Waterproof Connector (adapter at low price)

However strange it may sound, but the Minelab CTX 3030 owners feel indignant. Everyone has been aware of the fact the Minelab Equinox waterproof headphones connector doesn’t fit into any socket on other Minelab devices. But recently Minelab announced the price for their Equinox waterproof headphones — $130. Hence if you have two Minelab machines (turns out, there is a great deal of such owners), you have to buy also two pairs of headphones. Even despite the fact that these ones are identical, the difference lies only in the connector. Do you think Minelab did it deliberately or inadvertently?

Minelab Equinox Waterproof Connector (adapter at low price)

By the way, waterproof connectors (hermetically sealed, pressure rated), designed for the same socket as the Minelab Equinox 600 and Minelab Equinox 800 are equipped with, have already become available for purchase. Such a thing can make any headphones compatible with your machine, plus any dirt-cheap adapters. But remember that the manufacturer surely won’t like if you are greedy and cut corners on their detectors.

  • I would like to buy it

  • This is an entire topic/field that some enterprising electronics man or hobbyist needs to help sort out. There should be no reason to own more than one good pair of headphones for land use, and one good pair of underwater use.

    I recently came across this same issue. And no one it seems…has any clear cut answers! In my case I use the Koss Wireless Headphones on land with the CTX 3030 or my GPZ7000. Very nice…but not as nice as the Super Quality… Detector Pro __GREY GHOST AMPHIBIAN___ headphones I use underwater or in the surf on my Minelab CTX 3030.

    So I win a Garrett AT Pro which I promptly upgraded through the best man there is to deal with on these detectors…”Jon”…at Detector Warehouse in Little Elm, TX. Tell him “SebastianSteve” sent you. You WILL walk away happy…very, very happy from Jon! He deals with the big Dallas market and knows the ins and outs of dealmaking! Let me tell you!!! So Jon has the kindness he is famous for…upgrades me to the AT MAX so I can feel the POWER…in such a light, fun, sassy machine! And it is….I love it! THANK YOU JON…”DETECTOR WAREHOUSE”….PERIOD.

    So all I want to do is use my new Grey Ghost amphibian headphones with the Minelab plug, on my new Garrett AT MAX. SIMPLE ENOUGH…RIGHT? —NOT—, Different plug ends, and it seems so far in my search…that nobody makes this simple HEADPHONE ADAPTER!!! HOW CAN THAT BE??? The market normally senses the need for a product….and it is filled…PRONTO. But not yet? How bout it boys…

    I even see they both seem to make an adapter that has THEIR RESPECTIVE MALE PLUG ON ONE END, AND THE STANDARD 1/4″ HEADPHONE JACK (FEMALE) ON THE OTHER. I KNOW GARRETT OFFER THIS ADAPTER. I “THINK” MINELAB DOES TOO. SO NOW ALL WE THEN NEED IS AN ADAPTER THAT CONNECTS THE 2 FEMALE 1/4″ PLUG RECEIVERS. ALL WE NEED IS A LITTLE DEVICE WITH 2 BACK TO BACK MALE 1/4″ PLUGS TO PLUG INTO THESE OTHER 2 ADAPTERS. SHOULD WORK PERFECT.

    PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS IS YOU FEEL MY IDEA IS ALL JACKED UP! OR IF YOU HAVE A BETTER IDEA. THANK YOU. FOR NOW…I’M STUCK LOOKING FOR A —-2ND— PAIR OF GREY GHOST HEADPHONES TO FIT THE GARRETT AT PLUG. SAD…WHEN I ALREADY OWN A PAIR OF THIS EXACT HEADPHONE EXCEPT THE PLUG END IS DIFFERENT. THANKS!!!
