Depends on the EQ6 I think. My old one handled a 12" meade without much worry at all, as long as it was balanced. Brendan used to image with a big scope on his too from memory.
But then Glen had one though that struggled to get good results with my 9.25, so they are a bit of a pig in a poke.

They are a real lucky dip, but if you were headed to 12" territory and wanted to do more than planetary, I'd only buy one that had a proven track record, it is certainly at the outer limits.
