I haven't tried it, but am looking at it from a different direction to what you are perhaps.
Unless I am mistaken, the reducer/correctors you mention are designed for an SCT style of scope, and as such are not suitable at all for the refractor. Each has it's own set of requirements in a reducer or corrector, and I guess using a SCT unit on a refractor will result in "unusual effects" over the image, and especially at the corners.
My suggestion is to continue with the W/O unit you are currently using, and if you want wider, simply get a shorter focal length scope.
