Yeah, the 32mm plossls are very nice: but not cheap either! Televue just finished their annual (?) sale, where they were all 15% off- so you might want to look for that next year. Claude at AEC has the TV 32mm plossl listed at $175 (see:
http://www.astronomy-electronics-cen...ices_other.htm ), but I don't know if he would have two.
The 24mm Panoptics are lovely eyepieces (much better than the 19mm Panoptics in my experience), but you have to pay premium price for premium quality! The ES 68 degree series are cheaper and with similar specs to the Panoptics, but they might be too wide-bodied for a binoviewer.
All the best,
Dean
