I'd expect no less from Takahashi and Masuyama.

Even cheapies like ProStar or GSO are par-focal as long as you stick to the same series.
Looking at Wavy's VIXEN SLV'S Side by side with one of my TELEVUE delites I'd give build Quality and appearance to the VIXENS!!. They also have loverly field stops! Very underrated IMO; and by all accounts excellent lanthanum EP'S .
AND thats coming from someone almost exclusively using Televue EP'S!! Which I love. So stick to the same good EP brand as suggested .
