haven't tried one, but powermate or similar for me, get the barlow effect without losing eye relief. Less of a problem if you have generous eye relief EP's.

But at the end of the day, pure ep's is often said to be the best...

I was toying with the idea of 25/20/15mm tv plossl's with a powermate x2.5. At x2.5 for the 1.25" eps that's 10, 8 and 6mm, which would have worked well on my F6 dob. A major reason to go with a powermate was the plossl offering limited eye relief at higher mag.

Ps. I am trying to focus on a set of eye pieces that are around $1000 or so. I got a bargain scope that completely mislead me on the price of this hobby.
