C14 HD is ordered so I'll be purchasing an AZ-EQ 6. Will hopefully find the mount copes ok for purely visual. Shame Celestron don't do an equivalent though as I'm keen to use the star sense kit I have. The skywatcher version is awfully over priced.
still, looking forward to the big cat arriving

interesting. I've seen a picture with one on so it might be doable. Still, I really wouldn't be surprised if in reality the vibration of wind, movement and focusing will really hamper.

Well I'm definitely tempted!

I see some people are using a C11 on the smaller AZ-EQ5 and wondered for visual use only would it be possible to mount a C14 on the larger AZ-EQ6?
20kg's plus eyepiece, diagonal, finder etc? Madness?

I'm sure you'll love them. I have the 10x42's and think they're a mini marvel. The moon floating through the view is something to behold. Stunning. My only disappointment so far is Jupiter appears to be a little too bright for them and I get a little flaring irrespective of focus. It's moons are pin points as are stars but Jupiter itself is largely a white ball.

Once mounted and balanced the scope and mount work really well. Seeing hasn't been anywhere near good enough yet though.
