I have been looking at the Vixen Porta II and the AT Voyager mounts and reading back on previous posts regarding these two. It would seem that neither work well out of the box without modification of some sort. I don't want to go over the same issues previously discussed here but would love to hear from any users of these mounts that found they worked well out of the box without any modification. My application would be for a short tube refractor in the 600-700mm focal range weighing no more than 12 lbs or so with diagonal and eyepiece. What scope(s) have you used on these mounts with satisfactory results without buying new tripod legs or add-on accessories? Or is there some other mount I should be considering in the same price range? Slo-mo controls are a must and it has to be light enough for grab-and-go operation (25 lbs or so with scope).

Thanks,
Tom
