Backlash is an issue that is very easily addressed. My Heq5 has almost 0 backlash due to me taking the time to adjust the worms properly and installing a belt drive that removes the poor quality spur gears. I think the dramas with remote operation that Peter and the others have discussed are far bigger factors to consider. Having read all this I think that spending the extra on a paramount or an ap1100 would pay dividends in the long term.
