This may be going over the top; and its not really relevant to seeing things but

I am very fond of my 12 inch DOB but it looks like a water heater whereas the C9.25 CPC looked like a finely crafted watch.

Also i like the view through my DOB but

it is an open tube so the mirrors probably have dust, its probably not collimated to 100 % effectiveness, the mirror coating will deteriorate and reflect less light and like most dobs it has no XLT, UHTC coatings so

i am thinking that in general an 11 or 12 inch sct will outperform a 12 inch Bintel/GSO DOB?
