New Mount..

About a month ago I purchased a Meade Lxd 650 and have decided it is not what I want and am now looking into other mounts. I am trying to decide if I should get the
Orion Eq-g or wait and save up for awhile to get a CGE. I do not know anybody who has used either and would like some input as to which one would suite my purpose. The mount will be holding a 10" SCT or A 10" Newt, with a Wo 66mm ED Apo riding piggyback.
Any input would be great Please help with any info you can.

Thanks,
Dan

With those scopes either the G-11 or the CGE/CI-700 mounts would be the min. To much IMO for the GM-8 or EQ-6.
