I love finder scopes! Can't have too many....I have two on my scope.
Is the EQ6 goto? If not I'd say get a Telrad and a RACI.
On my 10" Newt on my non GOTO EQ mount I like to look along the tube to get in the general area and then use a RACI finder.
Illuminated double cross hairs are nice, specially at a dark site. Orion make a straight through one I have as well as a RACI. A bit expensive but worth it.
Had a couple of GSO finders which aren't quite as good, not as sharp specially in the outer FOV as the Synta Skywatcher/ Orion ones.
You could always go a bit mad and get an Orion ST80mm Refractor and use that...a bit harder to mount but the EQ6 will take both and then you have a very nice Rich Field scope and finder in one...get the Telrad as well.
