The highest i would go with my 8" SCT is 333x (6mm), i use a 9mm Illuminated reticle to drift align, anything above 9mm i lose resolution around planets, i don't do too much visual stuff. The 6mm is a GSO plossl, i think i would need a better quality eyepiece to have any chance of "seeing" things i wouldn't normally get to see!
I sometimes use my X-Cel 12.5mm with 2x Ultima Barlow.
I would like to see a few eyepieces in action though before purchasing a better eyepiece!
