G'day
Again the question to ask is what do you want to do with it. I own a 10" LX200R (same as the ACF just rebadged after the odd lawsuit). The meade mirror is oversized (10.25" ??? ) so there is probably very little in the aperture stakes. I love the autostar controller as it is highly functional and easy to use and the scope performs very well in alt/az mode. Its a bit of a pain to set up on a wedge for astro-photography as it is very heavy and the pointing accuracy can get a little odd in this mode even if you are set up on the pole correctly. The optics do a fair job at reducing coma and the focal reducers also work well with this setup.
