One thing to think about is construction.

While casting of the mounts (like the HEQ5) may have fallen out of fashion, it prevents certain plasticky bits from breaking over the course of time. This has happened to my AVX. Maybe the newer ones are different. Otherwise I quite like it as a mount - the gotos are always spot on if you do a proper star alignment.

The only thing I've (so far, ever) had go wrong with my NEQ6 is one of the clutch levers on the tripod shearing off...not especially tricky to fix.
