The choice of eyepiece is to personal a decision to comment on....
The internal baffle will be the FOV limiting factor....
Re Meade v's Celestron....
I used all the Meade Lx200 series (8"/10"/12") for many years and they worked very well albeit they were very heavy OTA's.
I couldn't fit the 12" on a NEQ6pro so ended up initially with a C9.25 (fantastic!!) and later a C11.
The reduced mirror slop in the Celestron was noticeable and with a Feathertouch 10:1 focuser, a joy to use. Optically they performed very similar.
