Are you more concerned with portability?
The more useful comparison is the weight they can carry and what scope you want to mount on it.
The other critical measure is the size of the PE. The next is how smooth that PE is.
There was a site somewhere that showed measured PE for lots of different mounts. Keep in mind
its not only the size of the PE but its smoothness. Sudden,erratic sharp jumps could be disruptive to your
guiding even if small compared to smoother but similar peak to valley sizes.
I have no experience with EQ6 but it seems odd its in the comparison with relatively high end mounts. Like BMW, Honda and Hyundai.
I don't think its PE would be anyhere close to a Tak EM200 or a nicely tuned G11.
The good thing about a G11 is it probably has a higher weight capacity than the Tak, it has provision for PEC (the Tak does not and their view is it does not need it), and has an upgrade path so you can tweak it over time and the cost is spread out over time. That may be appealling.
$3600 for a 2nd hand EM200 seems cheap. What are they new? $8000?
