I keep on looking at the EQ6 mount, but the set up time of the AZEQ in Altaz mode is appealing as well as the obvious eyepiece placement benefit.
Just that to the AZEQ is a substantial jump in money for what amounts to convenience. If an EQ6 was properly polar and star aligned there would be nothing stopping me releasing clutches to point manually, if I want goto back I can always redo the star alignment or even goto slew it to an obvious target, release the clutches and manually realign to that target so the OTA is again pointed where the electronics think it is.
It is just the setup time to do a good enough polar align for visual use plus not being sure if I would end up hating it for odd eyepiece locations.
