Matt i think the larger secondary is to provide for larger CCD's and to help produce a flatter field. Still the price is not Budget, at these prices the Meade LX200-ACF OTA's would be better choice. The 8" is almost 3000USD the Meade 8" is the same price (from opt) as the 6" RC. I guess time and testing will indicate weather they are worth it. But I would sure like to check what the factory price is direct from China.
