Takahashi LE Eyepieces

Last night was the first time I have been disappointed with the performance of Takahashi LE eyepieces. Looking at Jupiter through the AP130GTX using a couple of LE eyepieces from my collection I was presented with image glow and bit of reflection. This is the second use of the GTX so I trust it isn't anything to do with this scope. Time to try another brand. Is it possible that eyepieces perform better in one scope and poorly in another. Maybe the LE's aren't suited to shorter FL scopes..anyway it has me beat at the moment. I did note your eye position is critical to getting a better view.
