Has anyone compared the Meade 32mm Super Plossl (4000) with the Televue 32mm Plossl (both are 1-1/4" eyepieces). The scopes I will be using one of them in will be the Tak FS-78 (F8) and the 12" LX-200 (F10 & F6.3 with focal reducer). I am trying to decide which to go with.
Thanks for your input.

Steven,

The Meade 4000 super plossl and the TV plossl’s are equivalent, I have them both and use them in 4” apo’s and an 8 “ dob. I cannot see a quality difference. Make sure the Meade is made in Japan, the newer made in china Meade’s are not as good.
