If you don't intend to do serious imaging, for the cost of an HEQ5 plus tube
rings[ plus what you get for your present OTA] you could get a new 8" or near new 10" GOTO Dob; easier and much quicker to set up and operate. Having had both, for visual, and short exposure imaging, I would go with the Dob every time. If, however there is any likelihood that further down the track you will do some serious imaging, the HEQ5 would be fine to mount your OTA on.
