ok, so i just gave the scope a quick whirl
it's noticeably better than before. It's starting to look a bit more like a big scope now. good detail on tarantula and tucanae looks mega with the 7mm nagler.
however the image is still not really crisp. it is pulling in WAY more detail, but not as "sharp" or well defined as my old 11" celestron or my 10" dob did.
So in summary, it is looking good but I think it has a bit left in it yet.
btw, when you go to something bright like canopus - you can really see the spikes from the spider assembly quite clearly - I don't recall seeing this anywhere near as vividly in my 10" Dob - is this normal for a larger newt?
cheers
