here in the US its propaganda pollution, meade and orion are simply tops here-- remember the 'state of art LXD55'?-- people couldnt wait to eventually get rid of em- they both still have extraordinary claims in their ads and catalogs- but ask a tech question and they really dont know squat- or in the case of higher $$ equipment they,d rather not say, i put more faith in forum member reviews then anything, i thought the ASGT was the best of the CG5 clones over the LXD75, SVP and EQ5- so thats what i picked up- but thats where the quality stops- the next step up is the GM8 or new Sphinx- but for $2K more so of us just dont have it, i wouldnt buy the EQ6-- i would over the orion model though-- but if im going to spend that much- i save another $500 and get a used CGE- but back to the advertising issues, i dont believe much of anything i read anymore- id rather get the FACTS from a forum group
