My AOX regularly delivers and extra 15-20% of detected flux....across the entire spectrum....and sure in an ideal world I'd have a 36mm x36mm Sony chip as well a large aperture AO.

But sadly it does not exist and is unlikely to do so anytime soon.

I agree. I have always been able to tell if an AO unit was used in acquiring an image.
The images have more punch.
Much like a non AO system on night of good seeing.
