Mid-range 70 deg eyepieces

Just pondering future EP purchases and wondering what opinions are of EPs I haven't tried.

Does anyone have recommendations for (new) 1.25" EPs in the AU$200-$400 range with 70deg or thereabouts AFOV? So the TeleVue EPs with that AFOV are out of that price-range and so are the Pentax XWs.

Siebert Ultra would be one (I used to have and like a 2" 15 mm), Baader Hyperion another (which I have never used). What else should I consider? What are the Hyperions like?

Thanks for any comments!

Note 1) just musing at the moment, but 26, 14 and 10 mm would be where my interest lies.

Note 2) I realise I could get a better EP (e.g. Nagler, XW) within that price range (just) if I got a second hand EP.
