They are both great cones. I have used both and believe its up to the individual choice.

I can say that dealing with Beard guitars was a great experience, and I REALLY liked the sound I got from my Beard Cone, but they are both good cones.

All my guitars have Quartermans and so far no problems. If something happens to one of the cones, I may experiment with different cones.

I have one guitar with a Quarterman and one with a Beard. They're both great cones, and I would be happy with either in a new build.

I've used both and I can't tell a difference, another thing to consider is that I was told Quarterman wasn't making anymore so the choice in the future is probably going to be Beard anyway. It is a great cone.

Tim Scheerhorn has started making cones.

I saw the article, however, I hadn't considered them as a long term market because I think Tim is playing around with spinning cones, he's not taking orders for anymore guitars and I'm not sure he'll stay in the cone business very long. I understood he was trying it and making them for the guitars he's making, not producing them commercially for retail sale to the parts market.
