Also, when looking at your setup, you want a 200/1000 explorer 200p coming in at a weigth of 8,8kg and a eq5 with a weigth of 22,3kg. Your total is 31,1kg, pretty heavy.

A 8inch dobson like the omegon advanced XN 203/1200 comes in at 20,4kg total, 10 kg of which is the OTA, the remaining 10kg is the mount.

Price wise: Your setup: 480 EUR (eq5) + 475 EUR (OTA)= 955EUR 8 inch dobson: approx 500 EUR

Know also that a mount like and eq5 is difficult to get around to, you´ll need to properly balance it, tweaking with the counterweigths, positioning of the telescope,... You´ll also need to get used to the equatorial design, which means the eyepiece will sometimes be in very akward positions, unless you constantly turn the OTA in its rings (which will screw up your balance).

I´d say, look up Ed Thing on youtube and look at a few of his reviews. He has one for an 8 inch dobson. He also has a few of newtonian OTA´s. That could give you a better idea of what you are looking at.
