I've been using a Titan for several years now. Firstly with a LX200 12", mostly for visual work and now with a 10" newtonian for imaging.
I find the mount very good. Well built (like a brick sh...house)and well designed. The Gemini 2 took a little getting use to after the Meade but now I'm happy with that too.
Tracking and pointing works as per spec. They say for best tracking you should clean and regrease the worms every year or so which is what I've been doing.
The mount works well via Gemini ascom and Maxim DL etc.
The reason I bought the mount is that you can buy individual parts right down to the washers from Losmandy. None of this sending the mount back to the US to be serviced as per Meade etc.
I think for the price it's good value.
I have never used a EQ8 so I cant comment on that.
The Titan Yahoo group is a good source for info.
