Mike takes planetary images where you take hundreds of photos and keep just a few with a webcam. For DSO work where long exposures are required an EQ6 would probably not be strong enough.
Just my opinion but a 12 inch dob on an EQ6 mount with a bit of wind on a 4 minute exposure and the result would be all over the place.
For visual it may be OK, but if its just for visual why dont you get some digital setting circles, like an argo narvis. Then you would not need the EQ mount.
