Just my 2 cents, I think the LVWs and Explore Sci would be good choices. But I believe the Baader Hyperions are very similar to the Orion Stratus - and personally I would avoid them. I've done a lot of direct A-B comparison with my TV, Pentax and LVW eyepieces, and the Orion Stratus are definitely a rung lower in performance - especially contrast and edge. Don't get me wrong, the Stratus line offer some nice features for the price (20mm ER, comfortable to use, big eye lens), but for a little more I think you can do that much better IMHO.
