Swap 12" LX200GPS for APO Refractor?

Hi all

If I were to sell/trade my LX200GPS on a William Optics FLT 132 Triplet APO would I be visually satisfied? After purchasing the little WO 66mm the other day (semi APO) I'm sure that a 132mm version would be stunning. The mechanical quality is superb and I've heard the optics are extremely good as well. I'd like a Tak but don't think my budget would stretch that far. It's a lot less weighty so I'd use it far more than a 12" SCT. Should be very good for photography if mounted on an EQ6 or some other meaty mount (G11??? )

Any advice from anyone?

Cheers
Chris
