I have managed to see them with x49 on the Genesis......
I tried again tonight with my Vixen ED115mm (F7.7 FL890mm). I used increasing powers of magnification till I cleanly split both pairs with an 11mm Nagler (81x).

Ken, well done with the Genesis. What latitude did U make your observation from?

I see Cloudy nights had a thread where people were trying to split all 4 stars with low magnification.
