My friend, Bob Kirschenmann, had the prototype for the Starmaster V11 at TSP. While the number of cloudy nights at TSP was a disappointment, the V11 was not. The images through this scope were astonishingly good. Jupiter was seen incredibly well through this scope. My only comparisons were to two adjacent 20 inch Dobs with Zambuto mirrors. The size of the air cells in the atmosphere must have been such that the 11 inch had the best view of Jupiter. The double double through the V11 was perfect, a view befitting a Zeiss refractor.
